Yeah, quite likely, so I'm closing thing bug report. (Note that I'm not against changing this is somebody has a convincing argument why it should be changed -- but I think if we change the behaviour of something like this, the change should be obviously and clearly for the better, and this is more of an "uhm... I guess either works?" kind of situation, in which case "don't change" wins.) --=20 (domestic pets only, the antidote for overdose, milk.) bloggy blog: http://lars.ingebrigtsen.no
