I never really used any of the windows clients, but I knew Blocktrix had 
basically the same features (just implemented differently), which is why I 
assumed it's OK.  I didn't know it could be disabled by the server.

In my opinion the game should be about clever play, not struggling with 
the controls.  You can get an advantage if you set your keyboard to repeat 
very fast with small delay, but that's silly and impractical.  I think 
clients should have as many positioning keys as they want.

I'll just leave it to individual conscience whether to use the patch or 
not.

Regards,
Jan
