This has been the cause of much pain, suffering and anguish to many people who have nothing more important to worry about than whether or not their shortcuts have little arrows on them

Oh brother... here's Mr. sensitivity again... and this is one of his milder replies...

These folks, who ask about the shortcut arrows, certainly don't have any basis (or right) to do so, do they? Shame on them, for being concerned with something like an 'appearance' tweak.

So one of Tweakui's tweaks suddenly doesn't work... all the more reason to criticize 'em, eh? The nerve of these people asking questions... hoping for an answer.... and coming to the forum to get one....

Did it ever occur to you that some users may not know why this occurred and that it may be connected to more important issues? And, perhaps they might be new users?

So what, if these shortcut arrows are less important than other issues. So what if it's frequently asked about. And it really doesn't matter whether you rename or delete the 'IsShortcut' strings. Simply answer the question and leave out your insensitive bs.

You have the unmitigated gaul to criticize these folks for having nothing more to worry about...?

You are the one who has nothing more important to worry about except having plenty of time to compose and add your sarcasm.
