Jim> It'd be great if you could submit a patch or two

You see, I'm the fog headed user telling you what doesn't look clear
from my perspective.

Fog headed users by definition can't write sharp patches. For example
you just changed "kilobytes" to KiB or something. I would have changed
it the outer way around. That's why you don't want me in the kitchen.

On the other hand you sharp headed users don't know how fog headed
users perceive the documentation, that's where I step in to alert you.

It's all like in the http://www.useit.com/alertbox/ world. I'm your
special consultant on usability, of course only of the parts I happen
to be using that day.

Hunker down with the code? Short on cells. Limited Edition brain.
