Sorry Marc, but that ain't entirely true.

There have been a good number of examples where the one who raised an
issue isn't just of the format to implement it. So someone else jumped
in and did it instead. I don't need to pick any particular samples, you
know that it happened a few times.

And don't get the wrong picture. Yes, Dann is "just talking" here on the
testing methodology front. But as much as it looks like we two hate each
other on this thread, we actually start working together on a totally
different issue. And to say the least, I like his version better than
Katie's ... 'nuff said.
