revPrintField:  What is the nature of the problem with that command on 
Linux?  I searched for those terms in the RQCC and came up empty - 
what's the RQCC #?  I wonder if it's something we may be able to fix 
ourselves, and deliver the fix to RR.

revBrowser:  This seems merely a question of resource allocation, but 
being an external it seems likely something that could be farmed out if 
there was money available to do so.  A couple of us have expressed 
interest in helping to fund such an effort - any others willing to chip 
in?  I have no idea of the cost, but I'd guess it'd be at least $1k; 
between myself and my clients we may be able to justify a few hundred, 
which won't cover it all but if others can come on board with 
contributions this may well be doable at no cost to RR and therefore no 
delay to ourselves.
