I heard about this just one or two times before, once on the list and once on IRC or so. And until this thread on the list I never tried it as didn't need it. Because of this, I'm a little bit reluctant to advertise it there, too. If this way has not much more side-effects than already known, I'm also for advertising it. John: Do we have any experience how reliable this is in general? Are there more known issues like the one with the about: page? Or why hasn't this been promoted before?
