[ATTN!] Inform us about your show-stoppers bugs in 2.4 betas if any!

[Dave Addey]

Hi Ruslan,

So how *do* I do this in the class-way?  I did not realise that it was so
fixed from the docs - and I have not been able to find any way to do this
safely for the class-way, in any of the docs.  How should I do this?

Thanks for the help,

Dave.
