To be clear: The documentation is _not_ perfect. I don't know that we can
reasonably do what you're asking without having someone whose full-time, paid
job is to document everything. But we are trying to produce better
documentation for 2.3, and your concerns are certainly heard.
But (you knew it was coming): The above statement strikes a really bad chord
with me. It sounds a lot like the joke about what car companies would deal with
if people treated cars like computers ("do you have a driver's license?" "what
do I need to know all of this for - I just want to go places in my car!"). I'm
trying to seperate this reaction from your comments, since I _do_ want to
improve the documentation (std disclaimer: I have a long, long list of things I
want to do). But you should be aware of the way your comments come across to
some people.
