Because that would then be a new release, wouldn't it?
The whole point of Web Update is to not make people wait until the
next release to get improvements without having to install and work
with Subversion. Web Updates are quick and easy to do; releases are a
more time-consuming process. The problem is that fixes to the Web
Update process itself, such as the more graceful way of handling
permission problems, require that you be able to run Web Update to
get them. So if you installed Dabo using an administrator account and
then try to run Web Update with non-admin privs, you will get the
traceback until you run Web Update once with admin privs. Once you do
that, any future attempts to run as a nono-admin will get you a clean
message instead of a traceback.
