That would be a major change in how our configuration files are parsed, breaking a documented (although not particularly clearly) convention that's been there since the project began. It's also inconsistent with the convention for this configuration file format. the escaped-hash thing works fine (and I've used it myself at times), and just needs to be documented. I'm not keen on that at all: -1 - --j. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Exmh CVS iD8DBQFBWJ0BQTcbUG5Y7woRAumpAKCFWgpeXutRdBr63WHWt4RN0XTGJACfRxMi 1NwN6SarUBc4JLWd/825vsM= =UaZi -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
