It does seem very terrible if any existing projects do use the
workflow, as their receivers need to change their workflow, though.

But we can declare that we do not care about such projects that do
not honor our -p1 worldview, and I have no objection to this change
if we can have list consensus for us to go in that direction.

Colored patches, by the way, cannot be applied, so perhaps we should
disable ui_config altogether, on the other hand?  I dunno.

Thanks, queued.
