I don't think ANYONE prefers the current design; it is a compromise due to performance and implemention constraints. Jeff Hobbs has pointed out that those implemention constraints should now be fixable, it's just a matter of doing the work. > I'd be willing to help coding on this, though my knowledge of TCL > internals (from a C POV) is currently a bit lacking.
