I do.
Basically I get your point.
But what we do now is the following:
There IS a functionality, that does what you need (flexible, so you call 
it oversized).
If we now add the diff there are suddenly TWO ways of doing things and 
while you might be satisfied with the solution other people will come up 
with the point "why are there two ways of doing the same thing? I am 
confused, I hate TYPO3 and all of you" (little overrated, but you get 
the point ;-))
