 * Heh, sorry to bump, but…
 * One, I understand the frustration, I have it with linux personally and I’ve been
   using the damn thing on and off for six years. If you don’t want frustration,
   don’t mind limitations, and don’t want to pay, and don’t want to have to maintain
   the system, go LiveJournal, I guess 😛 Or Blogger. Though personally I don’t 
   like that you need to republish all those static pages there, but YMMV.
 * Anyway, Jinsan said “as an alternative, you can try TextPattern which is very
   easy to use, but doesn’t have the extensive level of plugin support, or Drupal
   or MT if you want to pay for it” — should I understand this as Drupal is also
   pay-for-use? In any case, to clear it up, it isn’t. (Question and off-topic: 
   how on earth does one make something closed-sourced on the Web, unless it’s something
   like Java, which you compile? I have really no idea how one would go about it
   with, say, a PHP program, if it’s even possible.) Also, Drupal has an (unofficial)
   edition specialised for blogging and it’s pretty sweet actually, I’ve tried it—
   Google for drupal4blog and you’ll get there. (I wish WP supported threaded comments
   natively like Drupal or LiveJournal… Hmm, where can I beg for it? :3)

 * Thanks, there 🙂 I submitted the issue to the trac as well, as even with hiding
   on, the way it works now is a bug, I’m fairly sure.

 * Oh yeah, I forgot: the questions.
    - How do I get around this? I speak some PHP, but I don’t feel comfortable
      with tinkering with WP’s innards, really.
    - How do I tell Development about this boog?
