Nope - it's a feature, not a bug.  A bug is something that isn't expected.

Well, since this is THE most frustrating thing about TR log, maybe I 
should invest the time into changing how it works.

The band/mode/call and QSO points are always in the same place.  It
isn't as easy to decode the proper initial exchange for all of the 
possible exchange formats.  Oh, the multiplier info is always in the same 
place too.

KC5AJX must have kids about the age of my kids.

No - more groveling PLEASE.  (Gee, the meaning of that sentence really
changes if you move the dash over two words).
