The reason I haven't voted is that I don't have any real opinion. I would have voted "advanced" if it wasn't rejected on the original thread; but otherwise I don't have any reason to chose one or another. I'm not a native English speaker as we all know, and I don't even see "Various" as weird, so I can't provide a vote that would mean something. Actually I think your POV might be interesting since you're a native speaker, but you voted "advanced" and I won't throw away the argumentation Dimitar had against it just for this, it wouldn't be any kind of consensus I think ^^ So I guess yeah, we'll have "various" in 0.21 unless you convince Frank/Nick/Enrico/me/etc. before Frank starts string freeze...
