Yes I do agree about it. In the middle of the "if 0 works why should I change it to 1?" "discussion" one person said something like "why the hell do you discuss about w&o?, I just enjoy the books."

And I fear that is a very common situation. More over, if you ask a lot of people if they have w&o, LPB, hyphenation or just justified texts, (even having previously explained them what a justified text is), I fear the most common answer is going to be "are you somehow trying to insult me? 'Cos I don't like when people speak to me in Chinese..."

Nevertheless, the freak and techy guys like ourselves usually like the things working properly...
