I'd like to toss in my two cents worth here before anyone does anything
rash.  Those of us who have multiple accounts and rlogin to another machine
to read news find an unimplemented return key very convenient, since the
"~^Z" escape from rlogin needs to have a return before it.

Again, as Mr. Martin says, it's not terribly important, but my vote
is for the status quo.
