I didnt' see 20 replies.  I saw alot of "hmmm..., I can see where you
would want it, but I don't think it's a good idea".  I'm still of the
mind (as I replied already) that it *definitely* shouldn't go in 2.2,
and I'm not even sure I like it in 3.0 personally, but since 3.0 is for
experimental stuff, I'm less likely to raise a stink about it.
