Where's the discussion that's the basis of that entry? I don't recall
any existing consensus on this (though maybe I forgot).
There are a fair number of things in the TODO list that you put there
because you liked 'em, but that doesn't mean everyone else agrees.
I certainly will not accept "once it's on the TODO list it cannot be
questioned"...
