Probably the better question is when Acrobat revs, how extensive is that product's QA with other inter-acting products? As I recall, there are always a few issues that someone within Adobe overlooks -- When Acrobat 8 shipped, the different default setting storage area was a problem that should have been caught earlier, and then there's this one. And there have been a couple others that surfaced...
I'd guess that the FM QA people aren't brought into the loop early enough when Acrobat revs...
