Obsessive compulsive:
Nothing ever seems good enough--I always want to improve things. Of course, this means that I hate declaring something to be a final release. I'd leave things in beta longer than Google, if I could get away with it.
Wow, that sounds absolutely nothing like OCD.

It's a shame that so many people trivialize OCD by equating it with innocuous personality traits like perfectionism or tidyness. OCD is a terrible condition to have -- characterized by uncontrollable, irrational, and paralyzing anxiety.

Using OCD to label what you've described is like telling people that I have Alzheimer's because I keep forgetting the syntax for pack and need to use perldoc every time.
