The "principle of least surprise" suggests the admin panel behavior is correct, and the bug is in trac-admin. If the admin panel is changed, many existing installations will break (it's a restriction of rules). If trac-admin is changed, no existing installations break (it's a relaxation of rules). --Hal -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Trac Users" group.
