I dont understand this way of resoning.

Let take this metaphor.

If you provide a road from A to B. But if most people can use a shortcut,
to save them time, they will use it. After a while you will have a path
going through that shortcut. Why not simply create a road on that path?

If all the plugindevelopers want to use the system a certain way. And
doing it through a nifty hack. Why not just realize that, and include
those into the SDK?

The discussion about the menusystem a great couple of month ago, when you
shut down the ability to use the widely used ingame menu is a good example
of an option that should be included into the SDK, or give a way to
accomplish exactly the same thing.

I can only se benefits for both valve and the community to include such
options.
