If new ideas were not introduced you would never see change in anything. What
if noone had ever made any changes to the original record player. So long as
people respect others suggestions then there is no better place than a beta
list for discussion of ideas for new features. But, it is a real drag on
product development when members of the team are opposed to the free flow of
suggestions for new features.
I say, just like Larry, if you have a new idea put it out there, and let the
development team decide whether it is something that can be done, and can be
done without causing problems with current functions of the unit.
