People actually do that? Just thinking about a stranger writing that to me makes me a bit creeped out, like a minor version of how Merkel reacted when Bush gave her a quick backrub.

People do it instead of saying "thanks" in some contexts. "Hey, the foobar crashed when I clicked the widget." Here's a patch to fix it. "hug"
