Hello Chris,
Basically I see no reason for your objections.  Like I said it would be a place
where I would go only to read and not post.  I also like to read the programming
post even though I don't fully understand them.  It's just that since I know
very little about that aspect, I would just read and not post there.  Any
discussions could still be carried on in the "Other" section without cluttering
up the "Programmers" area with non-programming post.  I suspect it's not
possible at this time or it would be done already since there is no real
drawback to the idea.
