So the reaction to cluebie FAQs is now to accomodate them? I'd really
hate to see this being used. And don't think it'll be limited to 'in-house'
apps either. If there's an lame, but easy method to do something, cluebies
will flock to it. Just make themes do better at specifying additional colors
and add a FAQ entry, please.
