sure, but i would argue it isn't possible for everyone.

There is one thing that confuses me about this type of post -- not trying to pick on you in particular MrSinatra, just pointing out a commonality of this thread with many others:
User1: I don't like something! How can this be fixed?
User2: That's the way it is.
KDF: That's the way it is, here's the bug report, try 6.5, and/or edit the wiki.
User3: That is not so, slew of opinions and ideas.
User1: Oh but it is, and my unhappiness increases by the moment. Days have gone by and the feature is still not to my satisfaction!
KDF: If you don't like it, fix it.
User1: Hurt feelings, I can't possibly learn how to fix it, and moreover I don't want to.
KDF: okay.
User4: Bump!
Hypothesis: The time spent writing these threads is greater than the time required to find workarounds, change the wiki docs, or actually fix things.
It's just too bad that there isn't a macro on the forum software. User1 could just input $PROBLEM and sit back to watch the whole 5-10,000 word thing unfurl over the next three days. In fact, I think that this macro is key to getting Squeezeboxes onto the shelves of WalMart and IKEA and thence into every household in the world... it must be done! SDI, this is critical to your success, make it so.
