I agree. My point was that this isn't a usual bug where someone finds a

I agree with the suggestion that Robbie made:

That way, when a user wants to set a signature, he doesn't get an empty

Hello,
I also agree: this could be a good idea even if choice is clearly

I can see both sides of this here; on a side note I've already appended
