Ah, Martin and I thought that it would produce an *error*, but we didn't actually check that AFAIR. I just did, and you're right, it's just a warning -- and that's not a problem, I think. > Still, I probably prefer that we keep one API, and not two. :) Very much agreed, let's use setup() arguments.
