  31. MultiFinder was written by Apple, and it implements features that we'd
  32. like to add directly to Executor.  That means that if our engineers
  33. fiddle with MultiFinder they would be tainting themselves and wouldn't
  34. be able to then add the corresponding function to Executor.  We don't
  35. have any engineers that we could afford to be tainted like that, so
  36. you won't see MultiFinder working in Executor 2.
  37.  
  38. We do have a plan to add that sort of functionality after Executor 2
  39. is out.
