Edson,
Actually, I am glad it caught it, because that was not my intent at all. I
was a global search and replace issue on my part.
If you added in support for these operations, I still think a warning would
be in order because that may not be what you intended,
I am considering the move to 4.0.x series, but I have hard deadline and am
being risk averse at this point.
