@William
Gee, calm down ;-). This is a half-baked enhancement suggestion, not
criticism.
.
> add hide_stopgap('some-hash-of-message')
That would be fine right now. At a later time point when the stopgap list
will be huge
(no worries, I will work on that soon *g ) that might be no longer
sufficient.
.
>In practice I have never once heard of any complaints from anybody about
not being able to turn off a stopgap message. Never -- not once.
People usually do not complain, they work around issues. We have to
acitvely ask for reports
(as I had e.g. to for [http://www.singular.uni-kl.de:8002/trac/ticket/694
Singular bug 694] by Dino Lorenzini; or for #17697 - my office colleague
dit hit it,...)
.
>Never -- not once. So this isn't a problem in practice.
now once : #17183 *g. If a feature is not perfect, users might not accept
it (reread #17183). The question here is, if we should care or not.
.
>If abs_integrate really is completely broken and full of bugs, then I
would want a stopgap whenever it is first used in a session. Doesn't that
make sense?
Absolutely, that makes sense... for most of us. Why not add some tolerance
for users/developers with a different point of view?
