Ok, how about we change my counting system?

I see one useful statement (new MethodEditor()) in a sea of
boilerplate. How should I express that? 1 useful line in 7? 4 useful
tokens out of 24(ish).

Lines was a convenient place holder for my initial rant. It isn't a
useful one for you. How do you suggest I talk about this kind of
useful code versus boiler-plate issue?

Gordon
