This is on our list of things to work on; this change just hasn't made it to the top of the list yet.

The item with the most votes attached to it in the development database was also first requested back in 2007; it has twice as many votes attached as this change.

Lest people read the previous sentence the wrong way: if we had an infinite number of developers (or the ability to work infinitely fast) we would be able to instantly accomplish everything we'd like to. Since we have neither, we have to prioritize.

We don't give the nod to changes with more requests attached because we're mean; we do it because it's necessary.
