Agreed. We need a solution for everyone. As we don't have one, a
solution for nearly everyone is pretty helpful. How can you say that
"failing for everyone" is worse than "failing for a few people?"
This isn't a rhetorical question: as there were some dittos to this
idea, it might be worthwhile to tell me (and the list) why that's not an
acceptable solution barring a better one. Keep in mind, btw, a full
solution hasn't even been proposed (much less implemented), so it's not
a matter of "working on a real solution" as no one has an idea of work
to do :)
