The major problem with supporting the syntax is that it requires either breaking currently supported functionality, or introducing inconsistency in the way different options are parsed. Specifically: bts retitle 469210 [bts] please allow severity 1234 minor, reassign it general , tag it moreinfo is supported syntax for retitling the bug and then tagging it (but /not/ reassigning). If we treat "minor," and "minor ," as equivalent then the command above will no longer work as expected (it will become three operations rather than two). An alternative would be to special-case the "retitle" command so that it must always be terminated with " , " (or " . ") but that would then be inconsistent. [I realise the example is somewhat convoluted but that doesn't change the general point imho] Regards, Adam -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
