I'll admit OpenSRS's interfaces are a bit "quirky", but the one thing I
like about them is that at least they are consistent: their reseller
interface (mostly) and the end-user management pages haven't changed in
a decade.  If there's one thing I hate, it's change for change's sake
(ehem, Microsoft, Apple, ehem).

So at least you know where it's wonky, and how to work around it,
because it never improves nor gets worse. :-)

(Hey, let's at least give them credit for having a timely heartbleed
warning up on the pages!)

P.S. If you're ever looking for an OpenSRS reseller who can finagle
special deals and tweaks for an enterprising businessman, let me know.
Assuming you aren't a OpenSRS direct reseller yourself, of course :-)
