I never said I don't want syntactic support. I said I don't like the syntax
you proposed. You and Dave have now both said that you consider this to be
the main issue. To me it is a minor and separate issue. Were soft fields to
be adopted with your syntax, I would consider that to be an overall good
outcome.
