Andreas, I agree!

All I really wanted to point out is what you say: it can save up time. 
And also permits a more productive discussion. And yes, I am talking 
about RFE.

Also agree with the fact that nothing in this should prevent anyone to 
submit a bug or a RFE. But following simple rules can add to the benefit 
of all.

Cheers!
