We don't have that many people exchange programs between their real 407 and the CMS Pipelines code ;-) > Second, there may be breakage if you "fix" this.

Yes, that is a concern with anything that gets fixed. There are quite a few cases where we can't go back and change things the way we want because too much water went through the pipeline. We do care about compatibility. This particular issue shows even in the book - the example with that option just did not work. If your plumbing relies on options not doing what they are supposed to do, then maybe your pipe will break. I tend to challenge people to explain me what about the erroneous behaviour was so desireable. Simply resisting change does not work. Plumbers tell me that not fixing bugs and not adding new function for two decades is not good either ;-) Sir Rob the Plumber
