The solution with + does NOT work fine for non-trivial things and becomes extremely unwieldy, as many people have clearly expressed, nor is the feature "a solution in search of a problem." Do you think I would have made this post, and then *literally implemented a basic working version of it myself* if I did not want to specifically use it? No, of course not. This condescending "I know better than you what your use cases are" attitude people keep expressing in this email chain is rather distasteful, IMO.
