I talked about some extension (I saw it only once before the migration)
which allows you to walk down the tree of objects in a document.

Nonetheless, interesting to you the story about your script selector :)

which means your English is better than mine :), this completely slipped
my attention in the IDL review.

Ah!, which means it doesn't happen with native look and feel. Which is
logical, now that I debugged into it ... (I left a comment for Christian
in the issue, describing what I found out so far).

Go to issue 81048 and add the "childs" issue as candidate, describing
why you think it should be fixed in 2.3.1. Yes, we're probably too late
in the cycle, but go and try.

There is a relatively simple mechanism how to get those privileges
granted. This is documented somewhere, the place just slips me. Look
into the archive for [EMAIL PROTECTED], and search for mails
subjected "volunteer privileges". Send a similar mail, and you should
get the privs granted.

Ever noticed your keyboard is bouncing on key "1"?

There are much simpler changes to IssueTracker which we beg for for
years. I'd say it's more likely for hell to freeze over than for
IssueTracker to be changed in such a radical way - I've abandoned the
hope for a change in IT itself years ago (you could find a lot of issues
about IT in IT, most of them ridiculously RESOLVED LATER). There's only
hope for a better when we move to another hosting solution.

I like putting my fingers into things which should be of no concern to me :)

Ciao
