#83203, filed 27 May 2002. Havoc declared it not a bug and hasn't even
addressed the missing documentation point I raised after he did so. When
asked on irc about this, he said he wasn't going to add the feature
because he saw no need for it. The bug report number was mentioned so he
did have some idea of what I was talking about I hope. I might even still
have irc logs detailing the conversation and his conclusion that the
feature is not important enough to have.
