I'm sorry Greg, I didn't mean to be offensive. I just feel that all your 
arguments in favour of this restriction are based on one particular application 
of records, rather than a general notion of what records are. Obviously this 
application is what motivates you to do all the valuable work you have done, 
and I appreciate that. But people are going to use records in many different 
ways, and I don't think that a restriction which makes perfect sense in your 
application should be allowed to restrict the ways other people want to write 
programs.

Barney.
