I'm tired of answering. Please read the cover letter. It's not about adding new features (it does in patches 1 to 3, but only as means to an end). It's about rationalizing existing behavior so that "newbie usage patterns" generalize better, and patches 4 and 7 are the most important (and the most controversial) in this respect. Paolo
