I discussed it live with Tom. We don't have the time to work on this right now, so we'll send a patch in a week or so. Given that everyone has had a a lot of time to provide feedback on that thread, and given the fact that we want to fix this before we branch, I don't think we want to wait too long before getting that patch in -- assuming we are still short on a better long term solution. -- Joel
