Is there any reason not to move it? : Curious mostly.. "Is there any real reason to move it?" is the right question to be asking. Moving it because it is the last exception to the rule would be one reason. Moving it because it makes this or that thing easier would be one reason. Moving it because there's no reason not to move is silly and should be avoided, as much of the rest of this thread has demonstrated. There's a constant balance between evolution and stability and tilting too far on either side of that balance will make things too painful for some class of users... Warner
