Hi :) Part of the purpose of a list is that many different view-points can be expressed by individuals. As you point out many of us may well not agree with the wisdom of many of the posts but hopefully by gathering different points-of-view people can assess and perhaps change their own points-of-view and hopefully solve whatever problems are being faced.
Many languages have a phrase for it, i think the French say something like "Vive la difference" but in England we don't like having choices and prefer just being given orders. I've been trying to create a chant or something for OpenSource here. Something like "Diversity breeds serendipity" but it's not very catchy nor easy to shout out. Personally i think regardless of what does or doesn't happen by default in different people's version is fairly irrelevant. Most people like and expect these things to happen exactly as they work in Word and other appalling products but other people prefer to have a tough time of it. All three ways and others are valid imo. If someone could post a script as an Extension so that it's easy for people to strip out all the 'useful' 'helpful' automatic bits then we could satisfy people from both groups. In much the same way as we have different languages we could allow people of different view-points to get some satisfaction without spoiling things for the majority.
