- As I said, those "features" that people complained about and wanted to
- switch off really don't make much difference after all. Stefan told me
- in the past that this is the reason why he hasn't made a MUI-Light so
- far - the difference in size between the all-singing, all-dancing
- version of MUI and the light one didn't make it worthwhile. Also as
- I've said, much of that configureability only needs to be implemented
- in one place and can be inherited elsewhere, so its impact on code
- size is probably much less than people realize. 31 classes and 22
- support functions probably have a lot more to do with the 153k size of
- muimaster.library than the "eyecandy" people normally criticize.
