Hello, With such example, using Users:: over parent:: actually makes sense as your intent is to request something strictly related to Users, and you're not expecting any inheritance. Sure, introducing a difference is not a perfect solution, but the general feeling is that it's the best at hand. No need to argue over and over, I'll produce a patch based on the (probably) outdated one done by Mike and have it committed if no new strong feelings against it raises.
