I'm well aware of that, Tom ;)
You are preaching to the choir...
I know I can add Feature Requests to the Bug Tracker (which is absurd by

And that is the biggest problem in this community: the separation between

I'm also aware of that. That is why I unsubscribed from the Dev list. They
left it pretty clear that the Dev list is for Devs.
