You are right: If (all) external visitors to the pages would do this "mentioning" (surely there's somewhere a link for feedback on the web-pages) to "the IBM web server people", things would be changed within a very short time.

Admittedly I've not tried, but I guess if I get a response, then it'd be something along the lines of "millions other users have no problem" ...
