Brent,

I think many others share your pain.  While what Google is doing is a
great and noble thing, it is like most of their programs and ideas
which are half-baked and poorly implemented.  I think Google has far
out grown the management staff's ability to oversee their
programs...something about raising to the maximum level of
incompetence comes to mind...LOL.  Google is notorious for creating
what they call beta applications and letting users sort it out and fix
the problems for them with no real investment of time and energy on
Google's part.
