Point taken Al.
I haven't filed a bug report yet anyway as I was wondering how I should do
that when it's not a bug as such, unless of course these kinds of things can
be referred to as bugs.
I would classify it as a query personally, but given that my experience with
filing bug reports is absolutely none, then I thought maybe I was wrong.
Anyways, I shall persue the line of inquiry and see what the response is.
If there's interest in the answer, I'll happily post it here for all to see
if the package maintainer is happy for me to do that.
Pete
