Andreas, 

Thank you for your time and comments.  The world, and more specifically, The
Documentation Foundation needs more people like you who are willing to take
the time to constructively elaborate in issues you are both familiar with
and are frustrated by.

I have always said to leave the "dog and pony shows" to the circus rings;
software should fix all bugs first before adding features and enhancements.  

It's even sadder then, when untested ideas that an Engineer, a CEO, or a
Supreme Leader feels some "feature" is "so cool we have to add it to the
program", without user declarations of need or user suggestions of
implementation.  (Isn't that the goal of true FOSS anyway?).  Or, more close
to home, when something gains user acceptance even though it is
fundamentally flawed; imagine the wasted time that could have been used for
improvements that instead, are just used for jerry-rigged kludges to get
useful data; by developers and users!

Thanks again for your comments and I do hope that they are evaluated and,
even if not directly implemented, are used as serious thought by those "in
charge" to guide in getting Base usable.

MRK
