The strange thing is I've seen it work both ways. There must be two
levels
of 'recommended'. One level is ok; but the more restricted level is the one
Bob is talking about. The problem with using 'Q' is you have to use *every*
time you use dselect from that point on. Not fun. I'm with Bob,
'recommended' should *not* be so obnoxious. Or maybe introduce another
level between required and recommended.
