Are you a perfectionist and a developer or do you know someone who is?

We know we're not supposed to check in code that does not compile, but do you get the sweats checking in feature incomplete code? Do you stress out about having to release a "minor" version cause you know "the job's just not done yet?" How do you feel about starting on a new task before finishing the last one? Does it drive you batty to be told by your team lead "that task" is done when you know there's just a bit more time required to make it juuuuuuust right? Gold plating? Maybe, but juuuuuust another hour to make it perfect! Does any of this sound familiar?
