Thanks for your speedy replies Larry & Andrew!
At least I can now stop searching for how to do it.
My guess would be some issue with legal liability: if you manually point at the sun (with no solar filter) and evaporate an eyeball, that's your dumb fault.
If the mount takes you there by GoTo & the same thing happens, then SW may incur some degree of legal liability or culpability.
A shame - instead I'll continue doing a Mercury GoTo (to get close) + manually slew the last bit.
Cheers!
Dean
