The point is, sometimes it's easier to fix a problem from a textual 
description of the problem than to extract the source, render it, and then
smack your forehead and say "well, of course, the veeblefetzer is 
discombobulated.  I should have seen that coming."  That's not to say 
the source isn't useful as a test case, but sometimes I, for example,
am not at a machine on which I can actually render things and look at
the results but I can browse the source code and look for something that
would cause the described results.
