THANK YOU very much !!! ;-) :-)

Especially so because from the one time I was forced to use (another implementation of) BugZilla, I remember I hated it and found it far too unwieldy. <n00b>However I didn't even know we used bugzilla here.</n00b> So thanks again for putting this forward! Much appreciated! It would really help if this were implemented. :-) :) - Jens
