Don't you hate it when application developers forget the d(elete) in crud? I feel your pain although not from a user stand point. I just hate to see a design where they did not allow for at least tagging accounts as disabled. How much space can a boolean take in any database anyway? I suppose you entered a RFE in bugzilla ? I suspect that this is the only way such a thing has a possibility to make it to a decision maker perhaps in the next year or so :( Bret -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
