If, while you're at it, you could add it to a configuration box somewhere so I
can change it and have it stay, you'll make at least one user very happy :-).

I can handle having it not go away, it's a minor thing.  I found it irritating,
though, that when, upon discovering that it wasn't going to disappear on it's
own, I hit ALT-F4 (the usual Windows sequence to make things go away) it
refused to leave.  Anywho.

I probably should go back and try MPE's typeahead.  My frustrations in the past
with it were that some things (and I didn't research very thoroughly what)
seem to turn it off and suddenly it's gone.  Mostly this hasn't been a
problem as all of our emulators have it builtin and we've just been setup to
use that and leave MPE's off.  I truly don't know how hard "easy enough" is,
and I can't seem to find those buckets of cash I was keeping for just such an
occasion, but if "easy enough" is really not a major problem, I'd be glad to
have the option of blurring my future :-).
