Can you suggest a better mechanism that would be acceptable
from your perspective?

I would gladly clarify the commit message, and I am sorry
for making it terse in the beginning. Can you please
clarify, what capabilities are you concerned about? The
change shouldn't change any existing semantics if the
mechanism is never used on a specific system, and only
alters "open" behaviour in the cases where the specific
message was issued, but I am happy to cover any
additional aspects you are concerned about

Thanks,
Daniil
