Hi there, so, any news on this? Seems every time I restart this thread (my email from September 6 was the third restart, the original thread was not started by me), it dies down after 2-3 mails :-(.
So, I hope that one of the two proposed fixes can be included for now. If Bruno or somebody else has objections, they had 3 months time to voice them, after all, and even if they still have some, then it shouldn't be a major issue to adjust the code later on. Right?
