OK, sure - but you do appreciate that we do have an underlying problem here irrespective of whether this class gets taken into OE-Core or not, right? Look, if people are really opposed to this then fine, I withdraw it. I just hope that it's understood that this class or other equivalent methods *will* get used until we fix the problem properly - all it means is the class will get copied around instead of being in one place.
