You're too polite.

I really wish they'd move the API from HFS+ to a higher layer so
you could transparently fiddle with the magic HFS+ metadata in
dotfiles or something without having to have HFS+ under the hood.
I mean, they ported the new UFS from FreeBSD for Panther, BUT YOU
CAN'T BLOODY USE IT because Carbon apps freak out if they can't
see any damn resource forks and finder info! Carbon apps are freaky.
They'll even cough up blood if the application is on a different
volume than the data, sometimes.

If I wanted to have weird interactions beween apps and system
internals I'd just run Windows.

There's stuff above here
