Julian,

Seems like Marco has a good point, no doubt the info-dept on
planet-secret has already heard, but just in case I'll throw
my (must-be-negative-karma-by-now;) weight behind this:

  it is inevitable that admins will do stuff like this on a
  single box.

  even if one ignores that, some admins have too deal with more
  than one box.

Regards,
Paddy
