I don't know what "go out of one's way mean" - do you know German
equivalent?

I don't intend to make anyone feel bad. When I see a bug or have an idea
how the software could be improved, I put it into an e-mail and send it.

The authors don't have money to pay an army of 100 beta testers like
game companies to point out these things. This is why I send it
- it replaces the work of the beta testers.
