I do not consider the computer talking to me directly a bug. I
consider the style to be personable, and the stilted, distant styles
recommended as being very impersonal and unfriendly. I base the
interactions of the programs I write partly on HAL, and partly on the
interaction style of dist, which is sued to configure Perl.I have
indeed read, and disagree with, the developers reference in this
regard.

kernel-package has been though such a review.
I am also considering just closing this bug, since I am upstream
as well as the maintainer for this, and I use the BTS to track TODO
items. In this case both the upstream and the maintainer are in firm
agreement :-)

Be careful when a loop exits to the same place from side and bottom.
