David, sorry if i was offending, that was not my intention.

What i read about slackrepo, it' really great, but i will not write code 
for slackrepo, as i'm not using it.
I wrote my thoughts about an OPTIONAL-field, maybe dumb thoughts, i 
don't know. That OPTIONAL-field would not break any third-party-tool as 
far i can see. There would just be more possibilities for those tools, 
and better user-experience on SBo, and thus in IMHO it would be a great 
improvement.

Yes, i didn't read carefully, sorry.
