(...) I can definitely see where you're coming from, and there's certainly a danger that having a viewer transparently support unofficial parts will encourage their use without being included inside the MPD file. Having said that, I see a whole lot (...) (19 years ago, 14-May-06, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw, FTX)
