Can you PLEASE remove my email address from the text of this
bug report. I purposely did not enter it on the form to
avoid it appearing in the text of the report. I am desperate
that it not be picked up by spam email harvesters.
PLEASE remove it.

Thank you.

This bug was fixed in 2.1.6 (beta).

[Dhiebert (dhiebert)]

I wish to urgently request again that my email address be
removed from the text of this bug report. I did not
authorize it and it was done against my wishes. I do not
want the email address included by the submitter at the top
of the report (i.e. the Darren.Hiebert one) to be picked up
by spam email harvesters. Please respect my wishes to remove it.
