It's partly for convenience on my part but more to attribute changes
correctly.  This is something you did so if at all possible I'd like
you to take the credit and (however minute it may be) the accompanying
responsibility.  It doesn't have to be perfect and I'm happy to edit
the commit messages / patches as necessary and adding cc to stable.
Well, at least unless you're gonna be submitting large volume of
patches.

Thanks.
