Two days and a couple of beers. :)

I'm going to avoid a pissing contest at this juncture in order to focus
on the stable release.  I understand where Kerusey's frustration is
coming from.  No one wants to see their efforts removed from the project
but his response is not in the best interest of the project even if he
is correct.  Henner, could you rework your patch to include a checkbox
to hide the redundant description field information in your component
search dialog.  Please make the default setting disabled so no one has a
stroke.  No good deed goes unpunished.  Sighhhh!
