Actually, that problem regards NATIVE!s etc. but it surely does
NOT regard VID etc. You have the full source code of VID, so you
really KNOW what it does.
I'm sure that a lot of people does not have the time and will to
scan all of the VID source code. But a lot of us here has read
some part of it, and we all together probably have read ALL of it.

That was not 1.x. It was most likely 0.y. I don't recall when the
change was made...
Keep in mind that in the first two betas there was CID instead of
VID, and even if they are similar, there are a whole lot of
differences...

They do. They have been changed in the past just for this reason.
