If it's okay, I'd like to move this thread over to the Sandbox.

So far it's not looking like there will be a lot of discussion... and if the thread stays where it is, then people who are signed up for General Discussion notifications get an email for every new posting.

EDIT: Hearing no objection -- moved to Sandbox 5/4/2017.

In that case, I think quite a few people -- i.e., anyone who is signed up to get email notifications of new posts on the General Discussion board -- will be happier if this thread stays in the Sandbox. But please do reconsider.

Can you give some reason for your objection?

Moving threads around is something only moderators do (and they don't do it very much, and would generally rather not have to do at all).
