Matt, Thanks for the followup and clearing up the license question. I do generally post these things to the 'wishlist', the one in question here was posted late last week. Im sure the wishlist receives a large no. of requests so Im quite happy to wait a while for someone to get back to me.
I would still argue that there is merit in opening up the 'wishlist' system so that the community can search for issues and enhancement requests if only to avoid re-logging already reported issues and look for workarounds etc. From my personal experience I find it quite refreshing how responsive Adobe is (your presence on this mailing list being an excellent example) its just that there seems to be a disconnect between the entirely open dialog here and the very closed one for the bug database.
