Thanks, Eric Blake, for your explanations. About what the "conversation" really was, you made clear that there was another person, "Pádraig", that sent a text that arrived to some people but not to other ones (at least me, maybe because he sent an e-mail and I wasn't in the "recipient list"), so I wasn't told what someone thought I was.
About the "unlikely to convince the Austin Group", I think you are right. Anyway, I hope that some day people will be better without some "unique", anti-standard behaviors that can be corrected :-), specially those that require few changes to the existing codebase. Meanwhile, I applaud the latest addition of parameters like "status=none" that you have made, to try to correct what is possible nowadays. Greetings!
