not for every case/function ...

What I meant, is that you can hardly compute/debug any values a function can
give while tracing (imagine, you have it as a imagemap)...

I think Christopher is right, when he means taht we shouldn't dispute about
issues, that are currently no problems at all ...

so propably I can say a EOT here ?

let me just say, that I think it would be great idea, to have recursive
funtions with definable variables, yes ... but leave this issue until 3.5 is
out ... OK ?
