Right. The reson I brought up the NEWS is that the last time I submitted a bug report 
regarding a change, the fact that it was not in the NEWS was part of the criteria for 
determining whether or not the change was deliberate.


 
I get that things fall through the cracks. I'm just trying to submit a clear, complete bug report. 
 
Thanks, all, for the discussion and consideration of my bug submission.
