This is NOT pestering. Often times developers can't see the tree through the woods. Every developer should love people making suggestions. I do! Sometimes it takes someone who uses the tools every day in a real world environment to make a brillent suggestion that turns a so-so hum-hum product into a real fire storm. | | That was the summary.

But for really good ideas; it should only take a demand of 1 person suggesting it! Developers are sometimes stubborn in this reflect... at least most of the one's I've come accross. I might be alone in my views of CHANGE IS GOOD phillosophy.
