I know you're not complaining, Andrew, and I'm not directing this
specifically at you.  This is just a convenient email to reply to.

Having said that, I just absolutely love how I go out of my way to
implement a feature people had asked for (that I wasn't originally too
interested in implementing), only for some people to feel the need to
complain about it when it's done.  Jesus, people, give it a rest.  It's
a HIDDEN OPTION for those of you with the ability and need to tinker.
For all intents and purposes to the average user, the option does not
(and, IMO, need not) exist.  Does that put things in perspective?

/me goes off to find someone to make him a Guinness float.
