For me, this situation is awkward, impeding and dissatisfactory. For others, it is reason to go away. I don't see that anything is gained for chastising me for my impression. That is merely shooting the messenger. Actually, more than the messenger.
This sort of thing is very common in open source projects IME, basically "if you can't supply the solution, then you don't have a right to complain about it." I see less of this attitude on the LilyPond user list, at least, than in most other open source projects I've dealt with (e.g., some of the Emacs Gnus folks can be right ***holes). There's usually just one or two who spout a 'tude like this here and even that's pretty infrequent.
