Pedro,
Thanks for the feedback, i will keep track of the things you denoted
and hope to be able to work them out at some point with the rest of
the doc@ team.
As i see it now you seem to have some valid point that we need to
take into account.
Again thanks for taking the time to deliver this feedback!
Cheers,
Remko
