thanks for the feedback, and sorry for my late response to it.

In fact this is how I would understand the specification. Or, well, this
is how I indended to write it, but seems I didn't succeed :-\

Where in the document do you read that this should *not* be the case?

I am not sure which version you're reading. In the original version, the
column heads where supported for a limited set of list entry sources,
but with 0.2 I extended (well, tried to) this to pretty much what you
suggest: No matter where the list entries originate from, the first row
will be used as column heads, if the respective property is set to "Yes".

Definately - that's why specifications *are* published :)

Thanks & Ciao
