Unfortunately, you place quite a high maintenance burden on the repository 
maintainers here.

for Junio to change and commit, up to a few hours (because they missed it 
in the release notes) for probably more than hundred repository 
maintainers that are not subscribed to the Git mailing list.

And I absolutely agree with Pasky that this does _nothing_ in the vague 
direction of wielding a reputation of being easy to use.

Sure, we can make it easy on ourselves.  And it is just as easy to make it 
hard on others.  If you're okay with that, I am not.

Ciao,
Dscho
