It would be so much nicer if this feature could just be shut off. At
least during a transition period where applications could adjust to the
new convention. Instead, users have to suffer while applications are
converted. This particular application runs on Windows, Macs and many
flavors of Linux, so it takes a long time for them to push a change out.
Especially one that only affects such a small percentage of their users.
