david you missed my point, its time i am concerned with.
i also like a simplistic screen reader.
true each new feature requires a learning curve, and also adds more total code
to the total package.
to things that the end user  does not want, unless doing so results in major
time saveing.
in this case i think the convenience and time saving warrants the trade off.
by the way  time savings is the whole reason people use computers to begin
with, so should not the software we use also do the same?
