    + Dropdown Lists: You can now use the Up, Down, PageUp and PageDown keys to scroll 
      through the items in a dropdown list when it's collapsed. PageUp and PageDown are 
      hard coded to do 6 lines at a time.
      You can still expand the dropdown by pressing Shift+Down (previously, this worked 
      without Shift).      
      Affects the address bar and all small dropdown lists.
    + Address Bar, Find Files Name, and Input Dialogs with Dropdown Lists: You can now use 
      the wheel to scroll through the items in a dropdown list when it's collapsed.
      You can also expand the list by Shift+WheelDown and collapse the list by Shift+WheelUp.
    ! Address Bar: Pressing ESC on an expanded list also reset the contents of the edit 
      box. Fixed. ESC is now consumed and you would need to press ESC again to restore the 
      edit box.
    ! Assume that mapped network drives are available: Yesterday's fix was too radical. 
      Fixed again in a better way.

    ! SC report: Did not work with Custom Columns beyond #10, for example:
        text report("{custom 17}", <curitem>);
      Fixed. Now works with both the canonical referrer (e.g. "{custom 17}") and the 
      caption (e.g. "{GPS}").
    > The index used in the canonical referrer can be seen in the column header tooltip 
      (Ctrl+Hover) or in the View | Columns | Show Columns... list. For the first 10 
      (factory default) Custom Columns it's at the front (eg "Custom 1: Dimensions" --> 
      "{custom 1}"), for Custom Columns added beyond that it's at the end (eg 
      "User-Defined: Status - Custom Column #56" --> "{custom 56}").

    ! Wheeling Through Collapsed Dropdown Lists: No longer worked. Fixed.
    ! File | Rename Special | Remove Diacritics: Did not handle the German text "Ich spür’ 
      soeben" well, because the presence of ’ led the algorithm down a wrong path. Fixed. 
      Now the ü is replaced by u, and the ’ (Right Single Quotation Mark, 8217) is 
      replaced by ' (Apostrophe, 39).
    ! File | Rename Special | Search and Replace...: When using ß/ss (replacing ß with 
      ss), strings containing ss were not handled correctly. Fixed.

    + Self-Update: All command line switches of the current instance are now inherited by 
      the updated instance. All except one, the /ini switch: if the app data folder is set 
      from the command line, the current mechanism cannot handle it because it would need 
      to know the /ini switch to find the /ini switch, which is logically impossible.
    > NOTE: Needs at least v26.80.0303 to upgrade from.

      locations that were clearly available. Fixed.
    * Assume that mapped network drives are available: Now disabled by default. It's a 
      shame that unavailable mapped drives slow down Windows so much, but working around 
      it and accepting some drawbacks (e.g. wrong icons) should be an active user choice.
