If I had that attitude I wouldn't be in a job for very long.

I can imagine the reaction of my thousands of users if I
told them that one of their vital, unusupported apps was broken
by a new version of our app.  They would go ballistic.
So would my boss.

People on this forum are often asking for bugs to be reported
and have been reporting 3 bugs since 1.16 appeared and none
of them have been looked at until last week.

And the approach seems to be "oh well never mind".

The broken Thing is the symptom not the cause. I very much doubt
they the developers of Thing used some evil hack just to open
a dialogue box.
