You can do this sort of thing, because you are mindful of the internals, but it is behavior that is dangerous and difficult for naive users - or even highly sophisticated developers such as Ville M.

Open source projects have a chronic and infamous tendency to drift away from user friendliness, and the out of dateness of the documentation, and the non obviousness what is safe and unsafe usage, represents such a drift. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "leo-editor" group.
