Please do not take this personal as it is not meant to be, but as I see it changing the DEFAULT behavior of a program now used by 10's of thousands of users around the World in many even non English languages becuase 1 person is unable to adapt their coding behavior is a very poor reason for changing it.




When the 10's of thousands of users come here to complain, forward there complaints to my PM. The way I see it, I wouldn't have poor coding behavior [implied] if this feature wasn't enabled by default.

Consider the changes from ASP to ASP.NET. These require complete rewrites of entire web applications costing millions upon millions of dollars. Companies will eventually rewrite their apps when they are ready to upgrade to ASP.NET Regarding KiX, existing 4.x code will continue to work fine. When they're ready to upgrade to 5.x, they'll need to change one line of code. Again, change is inevitable. We deal with it every day in the interest of obtaining/providing a better product.

And I still like the reg hack as an interim solution.
