I must confess: i've been completley ignorant of how SearchComponents are
configured until now.

It seems like a no brainer that debug should come last ... so i say go for it (just make sure it's documented). the caveat to that is that if the config specifies a 8full* list of components we shouldn't implicitly tack
debug on to the end in that case (just the last-components) case.

Cool.



: Another alternative, is to allow the config to insert a component at a : specific place, but that is a bit problematic in that it requires one to know
: the exact ordering of each of the components.

I actually thought that wassomething that had been done also, but looking
at it now i don't see it ... it doesn't seem like it would be too
problematic. it's just like line numbers in BASIC -- you don't have to
know exactly what the number is for most components, just setup the
defaults so that the "pre" ones have negative numebrs, and hte 'post" ones
hav positive numbers, and space them out in increments of "100" (with
debug at 1000000 or soemthing obscenely high)

Wow. BASIC. Hadn't thought about BASIC in a long time. Thanks for the flashback!

I'll work up a patch when I have a spare moment.
