I don't think it's so much that he has a misconception as that he's
obtuse. :) In
http://www.contactor.se/~dast/svn/archive-2004-10/1023.shtml he
presented a definition of "hijack" which differs from the definition in
the UI document, and he has since chosen to reinterpret other people's
statements according to his definition of the word.
While I agree with him that the UI document's use of the term "hijack"
isn't great (the term really suggests a hostile third party, not merely
a user's tools overriding our decision to set the read-only bit), that
doesn't justify confusing the conversation by unilaterally redefining
the term.
