--------------------------------------------

Hi Daniel,

Thanks for the comment!

Your message confuses me.  It's a usability improvement to make this change or 
to leave it out?  (are you arguing for or against in the last sentence?)

I definitely think this is a usability improvement.  I'm an experienced 
Velocity user, yet I build templates all the times with syntax errors due to 
typing commas in macro arguments.  Why make users think twice about this?  

I'm not worried about behavior -- it seems a small tweak to the parser with 
localized influence.  Our regression tests will ensure stability...
