So I've read the thread where you talk about this. I do not see anything
about it being a masive mistake. I only see that you're confident that's
it's a wrong thing to do. Like you're ever not confident about
something;) Care to elaborate on what's wrong with it and why we do not
want it ? On the surface it does look like a usefull option to have.
