Yes, *asked for* by the Users and the Community, for a long time, now.

The Board is *not* allowed to dictate to the Community, and it *does not*!

The Board represents the wishes of the Community -- this is why they are 
elected and not appointed -- and acts according to the wishes of the 
majority.

When they do not, it is because it is something the Board cannot do 
anything about.

Simple as that.
