I find these comparisons to be totally out of the scope of the issue we're discussing. > No need to agree.

Bonus: this open bug might ward off finicky users. Fine, I'll keep the program as-is. I'm tagging the bug as you wish but am also closing it, there's no need to keep it open. There has never been a similar report in the 5 years of its existence, so I'm not afraid of the risk of duplicate reports about it. Thijs
