Back in the days when Lyn Hadley had the title of Ombudsman, he took it 
personally if anyone said that something was BAD (for the newbies, Broken as 
Designed) or WAD (Working as Designed), and tried to eliminate that kind of 
response from the IBM vocabulary. If something is WAD, but the design had 
problems, he took action without requiring pleas from the user groups. Come on, 
Alan. He wasn't a bigger man than you, was he? :-) (Yeah, times have probably 
changed.)

There are times when a one size fits all solution will work very well. This, to 
me, seems to not be one of them. Chip's adjective works for me.
