We didn't have D in the 90's, and I may very well have abandoned programming 
had I not come across it.

matchOnlyTyped only affects part of the changed behavior, and I already have 
to have way too damn many "addons" (read: "third party hacks") just to make 
FF usable. Fuck, am I really *expected* to like or put up with something
