By that logic, with 5.6, if you want to access an automatic index past R,
one of the new ones, you should have to nave a special command line flag
specifying anything in the range of Q-Z, not be able to just type it in
whenever an index selection is called for.  And boy, I bet people would
scream over that.

I look at it this way:  a screen is a screen is a screen.  Anywhere you
should be able to access a screen, the name of the screen should be wholly
irrelevant.  It's not like they're even formatted differently.

It's really not worth getting into a big discussion over it for me.  I'm
just saying, poor design decision, IMHO.
