Thanks a lot for that, you seem to be among the few that appreciate it. 

Its seems to be pretty uncommon with people feeling gratitude these days. 
Most comments we got at gnomedesktop.org for implementing a much requested

software pretty meaningless. 

Anyway, ignore me, I'm just burnt out and fucked over.
