I wasn't talking about fixing any problems, but rather not creating  
more. I only suggested that you document the field that you added, so  
that there would be less to document in the future. If everyone were  
to document code when they modify/add it, the documentation would  
slowly improve. I'm not a developer so my nitpicking can be safely  
ignored :P.
