Hi!

Since you introduced the "user experience" ignoring the fact that each
user is quite different - especially if it comes to the "Average Joes
using Ubuntu vs techies" department -, you should be prepared to eat
your own dog food:

Perhaps you should have used hexadecimal notation so that it is easier
for the usual/average users of source code to see the bits more easily.
In short: Please improve the user experience. Thank you.

And that number seems pretty random - not a power of 2 or a bit mask or
the sum of the above.

And that number seems pretty random too - not a power of 2 or a bit mask
or the sum of the above.

And from here own I'm too lazy to calculate (or even guess) if these are
actually powers of 2 or not.
