>We pretty much agree on the non-standard issue - but it doesn't have to be confusing because of that. Sometimes it is better to do something in a non-standard way that makes sense in a specific scenario (and I am talking in general here - not about this particular problem)

No disagreement on this, I've been known to do a non-standard thing or two, sometimes from user demands, often because there is no standard for certain situations, and sometimes just because it's the optimal way for users to accomplish tasks...
