Uh, no, I'm not a developer. And the description of that list
specifically says...
"For those involved in the development effort to discuss their work on
the project. Unless you are working on a patch to SpamAssassin, this
is probably not a list you need to use. If you're not already on the
general users list, you should probably go there first..."
THIS is the list for users to ask questions *and* make suggestions, and
has been used this way many times in the past. And the list description of
this list says (and personal experience has proven) that developers
monitor this list "as time permits".
So with respect, please stop telling people to clutter up a working list
with (possibly) dumb ideas. And this one was mine, so I can call it dumb
if I want to. I'm thinking it's not, but open to the idea it may be. :)
As a side note, I had not intended to open a discussion, but merely drop
my suggestion in the 'suggestion box', but I am glad I posted here,
because the discusion among users has clarified the extent of the
problem. :)
[1] Also note your very own Subject.
Intended to grab the attention of time-constrained developers, though
honestly I am regretting it now, because I don't like having that 'all
caps' flag attached to a discussion. I've removed it from this post....
