See, that's the kind of thing that gets me into trouble *all the time*!
Limits! Time, scope, and so on. I'm with John, here, I'd want everything
as clean as I could get it, even if nobody ever knows.
More than once, I've stayed up way past bedtime, making sure everything
is perfect. Pulling lousy documents through a series of hoops to get a
nice clean document. When dealing with documents authored in the
corporate environment I miss the old WordPerfect!
