Comment 16 for bug 80635

Sorry you took it so personally. I think you mis-read my comment. My comment as written was for trolls who complain about flow-control without actually understanding it. It was not directed at you, as I assumed you are somebody who understands flow-control. Flow-control is an oft-misunderstood topic. When it came up at Linux World not so long ago, Linus Torvalds closed the consensus discussion as basically there is no point fixing something that isn't broken and anyway the correct place for per-user preferences is at application level. He's right. If it bothers you, it's trivial to fix your application preferences.
