Hi Arash,

Oh, sorry. You are right. I should have tested more carefully.

That seems to me an enough reason to do so.

I see. That's fine with me.

Hmm, this style is confusing. I think good LaTeX users should avoid
omitting braces like this example, so I agree that this should be
regarded as feature.
