It strikes me that if a list of such things was made available, and a list of 
things that were tried and deemed not to be viable was available for reference, 
then the repeated questions might not surface.

For example, Wayne had a brief discussion on this list about a BL3...and 
mentioned that it was already designed.  I just found out that while it is 
designed it may or may not be produced.  Having that information available 
woould have saved me several emails, and the time it took to finally get an 
answer.

I believe there are some advertised features trhat are still not 
available...having then on a list might thwart some questions.

Gee...if it were on a list as mentioned above, someone with a keen understanding 
of the process and Wayn's work load could actually update the entry with a "time 
to ask" note.

Yea, I know, it sounds like it might be incorporated into the wiki...I'm sure 
the guys handling that project would be more than happy to assist in this type 
of thing.
