Bugzilla is basically worthless. So if I can get an arrogant remark about
an annoyance with FC4 from one of the FC4 people responsible for that
annoyance I figure I can be excused for being far more interested in
making it work rather than filing bugzilla reports. (Searching Bugzilla
is like trying to find the right needle in a haystack in a dense fog of
wrong needles.)
