--- Comment #4 from Mike Kaganski <[email protected]> --- (In reply to Eyal Rozenberg from comment #0) > Examples of use cases > ----------------------- > > 1.

The same. So IMO: mainly WF. The "What people do today" is *the* correct thing to do. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
