It seems to me that there are substantive arguments for both sides of
the issue here.  Perhaps getting a bug (of disputed validity, with
strong arguments on both sides) nominated as a Mozilla-1.0 blocker might
not be the best way to resolve a technical debate?  I don't see how
staring down Slashdot and CNet is relevant here, since it seems like the
fix would be simple if it were agreed that it is the correct thing to
do.
