(In reply to Telesto from comment #50)

Oh.

I tried hard to explain the problem to Telesto. Tried to explain the idea
behind the feature; its intended user base; who exactly is the model user. In
the end, answering Telesto's request for simple steps, I wrote roughly this:

> See: here is a complex functionality, with involved mix of inheritance,
> layers, dependencies, etc, which is very useful, but from Benjamin's PoV,
> behaves almost randomly.

I hoped that it's rather clear for anyone, that if there is a functionality is
created for some user base, then breaking it exactly for that user base is a
no-go.

Well, the reply is:

> Yes, it's correct; but I fail to see why you say that it's OK above the
> "=========> But here is the button created for Benjamin <=========",
> but having the same below the line is inappropriate...

Am I the one who, respectfully assuming due intelligence in the opponent,
starts suspecting being trolled?

I am done here, trying to "discuss" something with a troll and spammer, who
floods Bugzilla with zillions of low-quality "reports" (unlike in the
beginning); making one who sees "this bug authored by Telesto" to react like
"ah, this is safe to skip".
