We don't break userland without very good reasons and support for anyone's pet feature is not one of those. It's as simple as that. > If you are concerned about not breaking anything: keep forks disabled. s/disabled/out of tree/ One general note: the arguments along the lines of "don't enable that, then" are either ignorant or actively dishonest; it really doesn't work that way, as we'd learnt quite a few times by now. There's no such thing as "optional feature" - *any* feature, no matter how useless, might end up a dependency (no matter how needless) of something that would force distros to enable it. We'd been down that road too many times to keep pretending that it doesn't happen.
