feature creature
[Possibly from slang "creature feature" for a horror movie] 1. One who loves to
add features to designs or programs, perhaps at the expense of coherence,
concision or taste.
2. Alternately, a mythical being that induces otherwise rational programmers to
perpetrate such crocks. See also feeping creaturism, creeping featurism.
