Note taken. I have money to burn ;-)
No, I actually don't mind paying if I need the job done.
And it benefits everyone. Reasonable rates too :-)

Well, with this explanation in mind, I have to agree. Simplicity is what I want also.
That's not to say it shouldn't continue to evolve.
But I don't want added complexity to compromise stability or security.
For now, I'll try to get around this problem without a popa3d hack if I can.
