Glusterd is also a 'special' case. As a glusterd maintainer, I am _not_ maintaining
<insert-your-favourite-gluster-command-here>'s implementation. So, I don't
'know'/'understand' how it has been implemented and by extension I wouldn't be able
to fix it (forget maintaining it :-) ). Given the no. of gluster commands, I won't be
surprised if I didn't have an inkling on how <your-favourite-gluster-command> worked ;-)
I hope this encourages other contributors, i.e, any gluster (feature) contributor,
to join Kaushal and me in maintaining glusterd.
