creeping featuritis
     
         /kree'ping fee'-chr-i:`t*s/ A variant of {creeping
        featurism}, with its own spoonerism: "feeping creaturitis".
        Some people like to reserve this form for the disease as it
        actually manifests in {software} or {hardware}, as opposed to
        the lurking general tendency in designers' minds.  -ism means
        "condition" or "pursuit of", whereas -itis usually means
        "inflammation of".
