Hi Kim
I agree with you that a solution has to consider dignity.

Hallo Marcus
A curtain is not a good idea from a purely personal perspective. It doesn't
contain smells and it doesn't contain noise. An en-suite is not just a very
personal space, it is a very personal place. Having said that, neither does
a saloon type swing door. The solution has to consider dignity, doesn't it?
