Lars,

Isn't that the difficuly? So long as the thinking is of guests at 
the table behaving politely problems of the doorbell being out of 
reach to people of average height will not be considered [to 
extend the metaphor a little].

It is a fair position to take, but it is a 'by invitation only' 
approach. If the aim is to make a popular program then developers 
must be informed about popular needs and wants. This will not 
address technical and focussed issues of the program itself.

>From discussions it seems that there is invaluable input from new 
users, and can that not also extend to would be users?
