Free software projects are normally not "designed", but instead evolve, so there will be no "justification" to why it works the way it does.

If your changes improve the code I don't see any reason to why anyone would find it "crude and insensitive." Still, you can't really "change the code without communication", since free software projects with no maintainer and anonymous commits to CVS are quite rare ;-) > I *did* suggest a solution (below). What do you think about this > suggestion, with what you know about the code? It has been suggested several times in the past and so far no one has told me how they intend to solve the problem with moving inside a "page" that now would consist of several records? The current code depends on accurate information about the position in a page. /Mike
