Chuq,
I can accept most of you've said on this issue -- I've avoided posting on it
because I always assumed it was a matter of priorities rather than
bloody-mindedness. But you imply here that the problem is somehow a
"cosmetic" issue -- and that's dead wrong. Especially for new scripters,
it's a real functionality issue. For some of us, unmangling is a nuisance;
for newcomers, it's often an impossibility.
If you see it as a "cosmetic" issue, then, with respect, you're completely
missing the point.
(As an aside, I also find the above quote painfully similar to the reasoning
my old bank gave for not supporting Macs with their online systems.)
Cheers,
