    Description

      > Does that give you errors or something that you don't want? Just curious, why don't you want this? I think it is nice since it tells you if it can connect to the backend. Maybe we could either:

      Like I said, no big deal.

      We've embedded Grouper in our production IDM system, and with our logging turned up whenever we start a process we see the searches for "qwertyuiop" and folks ask me : what the heck is it doing ? In some ways, if "qwertyuiop" was "testing-non-existant-subject-please-ignore"
      then I wouldn't need to explain.

      So, yeah, either option (or none, we can just say this is the way it
      is) is fine with me - I prefer 1.
