Agreed, it's a problem. But that rationale becomes a damned good excuse for doing too little too. I think that's where the real problem lies.

Look at the CURSORADAPTER() documentation in VFP8. It is fairly extensive overall. Yet that single topic has dominated much of the VFP8 category since delivery.
Clearly, though already extensive, it is lacking. AlekseyT has been fantastic is clearing up many things, but if all his efforts remain only here and do not make it to documentation enhancements his relies will really have very minor long-term value.
