Ryan,
Very good point, I guess what your really saying is: If your going to be a Power User then act like a Power User and hack your own tools, but provide your own support when it breaks. (Not meant to sound snotty)
Thanks,
Denis

companies have finite resources and priorities? Nokia likely balanced
the possible benefits against the costs of implementation and possible
pitfalls (How do you explain to users why removing removable media now
makes their system unbootable? Or how the card they used to mount on
their Windows computer over USB no longer mounts? Or a variety of
other issues. . . .) and came to the conclusion that it wasn't worth
the time and effort (and suffering for their support staff) for their
average user's use-case.
Clear enough?
