In general, I agree. Occam's Razor is always a useful device for 
choosing between two paths.

However, as indicated to Keith, the request/suggestion by Kenneth looked 
very attractive, and indeed, once implemented, resulted in less smaller 
code. It was simpler to implement than what I had before and improves 
code quality as well. Tastes great, less filling.
