Masterfully done, Paul! You make this most discouraging kit shortcoming look like what it truly is - a large but relatively straightforward fix.

I also appreciate your positive perspective that this fix is a better alternative to yet "another unimaginative display of expletives posted on a forum board." I couldn't #@%$ing agree more!
