You know I think I totally misunderstood your original code comment. When I read it now my response to use idfn seems kinda facetious (I was seriously suggesting it, don't know what I was thinking.)
Well, I don't hold it against you. :-p It gave me an excuse to elaborate about my confusion too. >.>
I think I agree with you that we shouldn't worry about holding onto the argument list as long as it isn't a tangible problem. I'm interested to hear if someone knows of a problem though. ^_^ (Edit: Oh, aw posted an example.)
