I think you should continue to do that. Even if it only has a small
sucess rate. I for example wouldn't have noticed that the stack trace
code I submitted into druntime did cause long startup times for
D-Programms that are run directly from the root of a disk drive if
Walter wouldn't have send me the e-mail with the bug in it. After the
e-mail I even fixed the bug ;-)
Kind Regards
