Please do *not* start a new question by replying to an old one as this causes
several problems:
1) most email software will correctly think that your email is a response to
the email you are "replying" to, and will indicate this by displaying your
email as a child of the original email
2) because of this, people not interested in the original email may ignore
your question
3) people may think that the original email has a reply(yours) so that they do
not have to give it a reply
So in conclusion, more people will read your email if it looks like the start
of a new thread rather than the reply to an old one.

Ok, it does sound like a bug.

I would hope that there are "less" issues which will be fixed before OOo
2.0 :) But on the serious side, once this is in issuezilla, then at least
there is a reminder for the developers that it must change. maybe for 2.0.1
or maybe a less experienced developer can make this change.
