Understandable, though I do believe that this type of functionality
would be rather useful to a variety of users...especially since
MacOSX seems to have a bunch of roots in MacOS9's multiple-users
setup.
Having it run as an Extension or Control Panel should cause it to
load before the multi-user login...and having it run in the
background would keep things a lot more tidy.
