Gaaah! And 75% of the votes are for the most irrational and
counter-intuitive behavior of all!
For heaven's sake, *why not make it a preference setting*???? Provide the
functionality to do any of the three, and let the users pick which way
they want their copy to behave. Since there's obviously wide difference
of opinion about this, trying to force everyone into a one-size-fits-all
box is just going to drive away those for whom it doesn't.
