I, for one, truly appreciate what you are saying Ted.
       Sometimes the issue for RT is man power -- balancing
       spinning plates on sticks can keep everyone pretty
       busy. :-) Automation is the key.  We've been working
       recently on some internal automations to help us
       address this "active development" question that you
       mention. Stay tuned and keep the faith!
