Keith,
Actually, IIRC this comment came from Martin. I merged a whole bunch of his changes onto the main line at some point, so I ended up being the cvs annotate author of lots of stuff that was Martin's rather than mine. But I remember vaguely having some conversation with him on the phone about this, but sadly not in any detail, so I can't really shed light on why we left this out.
Sorry...
Jim
