It's good when someone > experienced watches over :) Yeah, I'm surprised by it too - and surprised that there wasn't a test to ensure this behavior. I can put it back as a callback. I'm going to add a second patch to this topic to enforce 'git grep -f one -f two' with a testcase. As for missed benefits, they all have to do with ugly code vs. pretty code. I don't think it's enough of a reason to lose functionality. - Emily
