That kind of quick&dirty hack is fairly dangerous in the long run: as
they accumulate, they increase the risk that one of them will lead to
a completely unexpected behavior that nobody can predict/understand.

Quick&dirty hacks are very handy, and I use them on a regular basis, but
if experience has taught me anything its that they have to be short term
and hence accompanied with a parallel effort to try&fix the origin of
the problem.
