What a gruesome thing to do :/

I'm really not sure whether the renaming is worth its price. Actually, I
I doubt it.

So for the record, I'm not at all opposed to that behaviour changing.
(Maybe for PAR 1.00? That would rock.) However, I don't see myself doing
that simply for lack of time. I know Scott is in a similar pinch.

Any takers? I can spare a bit of time for coding to help out, but not much.

Cheers,
Steffen
