No, of course not. Taking into account that the doc has stated tthis
behaviour one might venture to guess that packages wouldn't rely on the
"actual" (as opposed to the "documented") behaviour.
Still it's a judgement call, and I haven't the insight/experience to
perform that.
I'd try to offer a patch for the function if consensus arises that this
is desirable (but not this week).
