:Matt obviously doesn't feel that having people agree with him is a

:I will _seriously_ object to is him MFC'ing this right away and have
:already expressed that to various parties involved with making such
:decisions for 4.5. Sorry Matt, but you're just riding roughshod over
:people at this point and while we've all been guilty of that from time
:to time, sometimes we need to admit it and step back again, as I did
:with Luigi's polling changes.

I've come up with a nifty way of handling just about everyone's needs.
*You* are arguing over a big piece of nothing because *you* apparently
can't be bothered to lift a finger and do the four keystrokes that
would be necessary to turn 'A'uto back into the minimalist setup you
had before. I am not interfering with your use of 'A'uto at all, Jordan.
What I am doing is making it far easier and safer for the layperson
to use, at virtually no cost (and often a benefit) to developers who
also use it.
You don't have to like it, but if you want to bring it to core that
is the line of argument I am going to take and frankly I don't see
any defense you can make against it. These changes are no skin off your
nose, or Nate's, or anyone else really.
