Heh. Of course I know better... But hey, stranger things have happened right? (Really I just wanted to make sure you didn't already have patches in the pipeline for them already.) But in all seriousness, those are regressions that I really don't think we want to go introducing if we pushed out 1.4.2 right now. It sounds like we'd end up with more breakage than benefit. -Eric
