Ah, I did not notice that they document that explicitely, so I was not sure
how reliable this is (I saw that it is handled this way in the code). It
makes entirely sense to handle it that way, of course. In this case, I agree
completely, and my special 2.52 case was unnecessary.
I am sorry for making a bit more fuss over this than was necessary. If
someone else had pointed out the official documentation earlier in the
thread, it could have been avoided :) But I don't think any harm was done
(unless somebody was strangled by all those safety belts).
Thanks,
Marcus
