It was a wishlist item and my wishlist doesn’t trump pressing needs. Too often the perfect is the enemy of the good.
I don’t know what’s involved in ongoing Notepad++ development, and whether it would have been a, “hey, good idea, I’ll whip that together in 10 minutes and be done with it” or if it would be, “hmm, we’ll put together a committee to do a needs analysis prior to committing it to the product roadmap and tasking several developers to develop the unit tests and blah blah blah.”
Either way, my life is 90% workarounds, so I’m fine with it.
