Like I said, I spent an hour getting that code just right. I did the hard part, I did my part. In the time you took to respond to me, you could have forwarded my email. I don't have time to learn the quirks of every project's bugtracker, type in information that's not relevant, and hope somebody looks at it. At a lot of projects, the bugtracker is where requests go to die (Bluefish, you listening?). If I could change one thing about FOSS it would be to get rid of bugtrackers and work directly with the user. That's what we did at VimOutliner, and bugs got solved and requests got implemented very quickly.
