Sorry if it's the wrong place, but I thought this was the place for 
users to discuss problems and issues they have *from the user's 
perspective*. That's why there is a user's list separate from the dev 
list, or so I thought.

The idea is not fully formed enough to warrant an official "feature 
request", I just wanted to see if I was the only one for whom this is an 
issue, and if there might be reasons why it's not practical or desirable 
to implement.

From the initial posting to this list, it appeared that this discussion 
had been intentionally steered to this list. Am I wrong in that?
