I'm not sure that's true - we did a few odd things that people seemed to
just accept. But now is the time to fix it :-)

I'll take Gaetan's patch and that fixes this issue.

Once again (as I've been saying alot in the last two weeks), thanks for
catching this Gaetan, thanks for following up everyone else. This is the
thing I am most happy about - the amount of things that we find an fix in
this beta cycle is exciting.

I'm really hopeful that 4.5 will turn out to be a really strong release.

A few more days for the documentation, translations and of course the web
site to settle and then I'll cut the release.

Please keep testing, please keep finding and fixing bugs.
