Hi :) I have it on for my colleagues to make LO start-up just that bit faster. They pick on any slightest thing as "a blocker" and slower start-up drives them up the wall. They really have no clue about adding Extensions and haven't used LO enough to grumble about any 'missing' functionality. if they did i would add the appropriate Extension for them. I already do the updates for them anyway.
Admittedly i am not in a perfect position and it's probably not a good idea to copy me. On my own logins i avoid the quick-starter because there is plenty else to get on with while waiting for something to open.
