Add Windows XP SP2 as seperate OS choice for compatability results

To the Powers That Be at ntcompatible, I offer the above suggestion since Windows XP SP 2 changes some significant things and will probably break many apps. Thus, it might be worth having its own entry as an operating system choice for submitting compatability results.

Not a good idea. If we started creating seperate entries for each SP then the compatibility database would be unnecessarily confusing. Simply adding a comment for the application that SP2 broke something would be sufficient.
 
Besides it is the job of the developer of the software to fix the software that a SP breaks. Having a seperate SP OS choice for an application that may/may not be fixed would be a waste of database space.
