The way I've always used it, there is a slight difference between a misfeature
and a bug.  A bug is either undocumented, or doumented as an error, and was
never included in the software on purpose.  A misfeature was included
deliberately, and is documented as an option or characteristic of the software,
but is in fact undesireable, and not really a feature at all.
