I think you're making things much worse than they are. You say "there's a good chance" and "almost guarantedd" to crash. It is in fact the opposite. It works 99% of the time, it's that 1% which is the killer. Relatively simple mechanism can bring this up to very near 100% efficiency. There still always remains that window in which a crash is potential. The only way I see to correct this would be to apply the concept of drivers used by the printer device. Simply have an extry in preferences that would allow the user to select among various requesters. New requester? Just copy in Devs:Requesters or something… -Martin Taillefer
