Okay come on. It's not like this is a ridiculously common use case. Plus there are 2 other workarounds.

If you're playing with Oracle data that often, you're probably an enterprise customer who's going to buy the next version anyway.

It's not like this was happening every time you wanted to save or copy/paste data.

I agree it's not a very relevant problem that didn't affect too many people. Still, it shows a pretty lame bug (that is, if the Oracle folks did their job correctly). In 1997 it was already usual to offer updates through the internet.

It's still kind of embarrassing.
