Yes to your first question. Regarding the final sentence, yes, I agree it's explainable. But I thought that handling negation like this was one of the main complaints of earlier iterations? > When ORing multiple expressions I don't pay attention to their order > as that operator is commutative.

That's explainable, and I doubt the performance implications are going to be all that noticeable. -Peff
