Joe, I don't think we can come to the conclusion, "To just stuff the action in and ask the customer to play it, is inviting this type of dillema,".  I have had to run out to the car and get tools only to come back and find the customer sitting and playing the piano.  It's hard to guard the piano and we certainly can't forbid the owner from playing it.
