RE: [TSVN] Feature Request: Make switches safer.

Mark is correct about what I meant, but I disagree with his assessment of
its usefulness. Without feature X documented somewhere where people can find
it, it just going to be asked for over and over again and that wastes time.
Such issues are just filtered out from the list of working issues or
maintained seperately.

I think he means put it somewhere like the issue tracker so that if the
API's available to you ever change you remember that there was a request
for something like this once. Personally, I prefer to not enter items
that cannot be done and let them come back on their own in the future when
perhaps they can. It wastes a lot of collective time to have an open
issue in an issue tracker that cannot really be done.
