Well cared for? yes guess it was but I’m still concerned that it generated no other interest or was that simply that the milestone was set to far in the future?

No hidden groups shouldn’t be used period until such time as this issue is correctly dealt with, hacks worry me used to cure this sort of problem. however given that Boone looked into this I’m pretty happy the fix is a fairly safe short term fix.

As you spotted I questioned whether or not the milestone should have been moved up? to 1.2.4 but it was a question unanswered, I placed it in 1.3 as I wasn’t sure where it ought to have been placed but asked the question upon creation and notification in original forum thread.
