Wow, such deep discussion for such a trivial patch!
I say we take it, mostly because I personally prefer being
permissive if there's nothing technically wrong with a patch,
but also because I'm swayed by the other comments.
That being said, I agree with Johan--the patch would be
improved with a little better comment about what motivated
the submission. So I'll wait for v2.
