Yes, Jens is not just one of the people who have been working on
harder, and thinking longer about, submodules than anybody else, but
also has demonstrated that he has good taste and balanced view on
the design of the subsystem over time, whose technical judgment we
can trust.

Not all the changes listed on the page may necessarily be good as-is
(e.g. some may help only a subset of users while hurting others,
like the "recursively check-out everything unconditionally" that
trigerred this thread), but the page has a good collection to remind
anybody, who designs a coherent whole, of issues that need to be
taken into account.

Thanks for a pointer to an excellent starting page.
