Yup. This patch isn't as bad as everyone made it out to be.
I think we should go ahead and include it.
But usually we don't indent the commit message like you did
above; instead the message should be aligned on the left margin at
column 0. git log will indent the message during display, hence
any identation you add in the patch email just makes the message
that much harder to read from git log.
