By the way,

You should open bug reports. I don't have time (or the will) to do
this just now, and I will have forgotten about this in a few hours
(and in a few days, this email will be lost in the bottom of my
mailbox).
If you want bugs to leave a trace and not be forgotten, you should
open bug reports. They can then also be dealt by other developers (not
only me) later on so you improve chances of seeing this being taken
care of.

Thanks.
