Heheh thanks Greg! Yeah, I was trying to make a civilized discussion,
but it's impossible to argue over such amount of bike-shedding about
trivial stuff...
My patience reached its maximum, I'm starting to think it's a kind of
sophisticated troll technique heheh

Anyway, I won't be able to iterate this patch anymore, so if you think
it's appropriate and "mergeable", I'd be thankful! Although trivial, it
seems a good addition.
Otherwise, If you dislike it, just drop the patches, they aren't
essential, of course.

Thanks, and have a happy new year.
Cheers,


Guilherme
