Yes, but you can't expect it to magically appear without somebody
doing it. And it seemed you were waiting for FSF to add it. This means
(to me) that you should do it.

Yes, you can. But I haven't shown any interest in having
them. Furthermore, I really think it's a waste of (my) time; I have
really no use for them. And why should I try to make the piece of junk
WINDOZE any better when it even can't stay up for one whole day?
