It's a good opportunity to re-think if we should be using bitmaps in these contexts at all, or if there is a simpler thing to do by disabling them when 'haves' exist. I don't think that's the right thing to do in all cases, but the experiments you've demonstrated here seem to point in that direction.
Yes, I agree that it's a worthwhile direction to consider in the future. I fear that it will be hard to come up with absolute rules here, but that doesn't mean it isn't worth trying :-). Thanks, Taylor
