Ok, that's annoying indeed.

I will add this for the next release, then, but please notice that =20
I'll leave soon for my annual holidays, and be back only in the =20
middle of August... Not sure I'll have the time before (and that =20
reminds me that I'm also supposed to do a release to fix the bug you =20
found... ahem...).

(If you need it very quickly, I'm happy to accept patches. I'm sure =20
you have countless better things to do than hack my code, though, but =20=

I just wanted to let you know...)

Thank you for your feedback,

Michel.
