I would argue that commercial products need to get a clue and stop
playing bondage with their users to help stop their imminent and frankly
obvious downfall from the Open Source competition.
This "feature" as it is called can be developed externally and has zero

demand that people think that it does, then the external project will be
very successful and that's cool.
