I see this as a cop-out for poor development and a failure to meet the
requests of your userbase. I can't do anything more appropriate than
complain since I'm unwilling to fork, so that's what I'll do.
I'd encourage you to add an "Advanced Preferences" tab/option for features
such as this. This would allow you to meet the needs of your every-day
stupid userbase as well as the highly educated userbase. Otherwise, you
risk offending one or the other.

Unrelated comments;
I'm pleased to see some ongoing development of this very important piece
of software, which had gone dormant for a rather long period of time. I
am aware of the legal issues with AOL and the name change.
