What I like is the speed it got corrected.  People that don't sync often 
most likely didn't even know it ever changed.

Another like, a dev that at least reads some of this stuff on -user.  
It's a good way to get feedback.  If you change something and it doesn't 
get mentioned, most likely all is well.  If it does get mentioned, may 
want to rethink the change.

Lessons learned the hard way are the ones we remember the longest.  ;-)
