Thanks Koen, well I'm no zen master by any means, but staying calm about porcelain cracks comes from lots of experience with the medium and many, many times of feeling upset about things like this. It's still frustrating, but I try to train myself to either a) creatively incorporate it into the design or b) immediately start to remake the piece before I have time to feel too upset about it 
(Yes, I could glue it, but there would still be a visible line, and since I don't want glaze or paint on this part of the porcelain, there is no good way to disguise it. And adding more glaze isn't an option, since the fired porcelain is no longer porous, new glaze won't fuse to it again.)
