I beg to differ. I, a user, very much expect the current behavior and would be very surprised if it worked the way you are suggesting. Ian's msg gives good reasons why it would be wrong to change the behavior, even if we could go back in time to before the release of Go 1 and the Compatibility Guarantee. ...Marvin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
