You know the old saying that ignorance is bliss?  For myself, the secret 
to whatever magnanimity I might have is simply being absent-minded:  I'd 
long forgotten that I logged that bug. :)

Now that you've refreshed my memory, it does rather feel like a waste of 
time to entertain these sorts of broken-record threads.

Here's the URL to the BZ:

Let's please not spend more time on this bug, okay Dave?  We've done 
everything that can be done, long ago.

And Dave, I do hope you've signed up to participate in the v2.7.5 beta
