The issue seems simple to me: A meaningful number of professional users of FrameMaker have discovered that Adobe inadvertently omitted a key piece of text-inset functionality. Now that the issue has been surfaced, it should be simple to add the functionality and thus dramatically enhance the usefulness of both FrameMaker and PDFs. Arguments that correcting this obvious anomaly will somehow soil the intellectual purity of "proper" modular concept leave me singularly unmoved. In FrameMaker Adobe has a tool that could slowly grow into an excellent entry point into small and medum-scale modular content. Rather than wasting a figurative two hours arguing about the desirability of a fix, Adobe ought to simply do the figurative one hour's worth of work necessary to implement it. If users then voluntarily choose to apply the corrected feature in ways that aren't approved by erstwhile Deep Thinkers, well that's the user's responsibility.
