[Mono-dev] Arguing for reconsideration of WONTFIX status of 425512

[Stifu]

Your opinion makes sense, but then, why bother with Windows.Forms (or other
things like pseudo-Windows registry support), for example? The Mono team
seems a bit torn between adding "hacky" stuff for the sake of compatibility
(note: I'm not bashing, I rely on the Windows.Forms support of Mono myself),
and not trying to match .NET when easily possible (like this post from
yesterday shows: http://www.go-mono.com/forums/).
