I understand. Thanks for the clarification.

Excellent, that's very good to know.

Well, it is still a b/c break :) But it would be nice to have a chance
to use constants in the ini files again.
I'll wait until the next release to make a decision based on how this turns out.
Thank you very much for your efforts, Ivan.
