Sorry if I sound cranky but I got that impression from the responses
here (which are greatly different from the responses I got on other

I tried my best but obviously it was not good enough to please
everybody.  In all honesty I did not expect that such a small change
would spawn such a great discussion.  After all what we're discussing
here is the introduction of one letter to literals :-)
