As a matter of fact, you could put any information you want, including new bits of code in there that have hooks into the old code (which seems like it would be easier in 2.0...). The question is, would it be worth it? After all it could make things as difficult as on the Mac or even worse. And, if folks get carried away with it, there will be all sorts of extraneous data filling up these files and taking up space on my harddisk (as is sometimes the case in a Mac...). - James McIninch Georgia Institute of Technology, School of Applied Biology
