As an application developer this story makes me wish I had taken a few industrial design courses back in college.

Effective design! I need to go see if they make anything like this still with a real nozzle. The plastic 'no drip' nozzles you find in the bulk hardware stores are completely worthless.

That rocks. Too bad we can no longer buy plain ol' flexi spouts in the US due to EPA regulations.
