Hi Steve,

Definition time: a bug is a _fault_ in the implementation of a piece
of software (the coding) which renders it inoperable or breaks design
constraints within which the software should be operating. You are
describing as a "bug" additional functionality (which both Curtis and
I find indispensable). This is functionality which breaks nothing,
works exactly as designed, impedes nothing and only adds to the choice
a user has. Ermm - no way does that conform to any definition of the
word "bug" that I have ever come across. The only way I could stretch
to understand what you are saying is if you mean that the design is
flawed. Then that's a design flaw, not an implementation fault.
It's also just an opinion which I don't share.
