But Robert, it's only been four months since the issue was first brought up. How quickly do you expect me to work?
Just kidding :-) Actually, I looked at the code and saw that I had made this change to the client codebase on the very day we had this discussion. I just never released it. I just did a build and I'll release it today. If you want, you can connect to dev.sourcejammer.org and get the latest code and do your own build, but you should be able to download my latest pretty soon.
