I don't agree with this. If we are now providing an interface explicitly to
ignore RPe, that should be /only/ way to ignore RPe. There should be no
other "under the hood" ignoring of RPe. In other words, ignoring RPe should
be minimized unless explicitly requested.

I don't clearly understand why this was done previously but it makes even
less sense to me now after this patch.

Thanks.
