Something is better than no action. Most of time there is only one
header/footer, or the first page are different. It's just a start and we
need to collect the feedback from user. If necessary, we will continue work
on it. If you are interested in this feature, you can dive in it.  I would
be like to discuss it with you.

BTW: I think this issue should be post in [email protected], not
here. To complex discussion will make the user lost, especially for the
freshmen ;)
