Yes. I thought you were saying something like: "I plan on doing this but am worried that it might not work" And I said something like "You are probably worrying unnecessarily -- here'a rule that generally works, and here's a tool to play with if you get problem cases" ..so.. Have you done an explicit experiment that gives error messages? Perhaps I'm am not understanding what you are asking, eh?
