  As soon as the end user says "Oh, it would actually be better if it
worked this other way" your careful design is in danger.  And these days,
when so much of "programming" consists of finding and and applying various
libraries, bindings, etc, as soon as the library module turns out to act
in a substantially different way than you were led to expect, your
careful design is again in danger.
