With regard to the last sentence: sometimes I like to play the
"advocatus diaboli" (and often you get less than you pay for).
In reality, I think we all are extremely fortunate that there
are so many dedicated individuals investing their time (and many
working for practically nothing) to improve our software
environments.
I don't think you have offended anyone, and I also did not
really intend to criticize you for feeling frustrated about
software limitations. I just wanted to give a simple (and
human) explanation for why things are as they are. And I
believe the work everyone contributes to this list is well
appreciated.
