Hi Bruno, I like the idea, but I've never worried about this case on the principle that if a program is already writing to stderr, it's usually because it's going to exit nonzero anyway. I hope you don't mind waiting a few days for feedback. I'm concentrating on making a stable coreutils-6.3 release.
