As long as the safety valves don't come up _routinely_ in certain workflows, it seems OK to bypass them with a '-f' force switch. I suspect the best way to figure out if such workflows are in use is to put in the safety valves and see who complains; otherwise we're stuck with brainstorming workflows and deciding whether they make sense.
Problem is that nobody reads the manuals, next to nobody complains, and when it doesn't work out via road A you try plan B. A might have been exactly right, but it is blocked, and you'll never know if it is because of fundamental reasons or by decree. -- Dr. Horst H. von Brand User #22616 counter.li.org Departamento de Informatica Fono: +56 32 2654431 Universidad Tecnica Federico Santa Maria +56 32 2654239
