Heh, like it or not we are all beta testing DSS2! It is so much
better than the old DSS code that I want to do everything possible to
help Tomi get it accepted upstream as quickly as possible :-)

I agree that would be nice, and in fact that is the way I did it
initially. But for some reason it didn't work. I didn't spend a lot
of time investigating, but it seemed that there was a limit to how

out operator error though!
