You are proposing a change that has as consequence removal of this feature
in its current form. It makes sense that you take the responsibility to make
sure it gets reimplemented (in some form).

FWIW, I, for one, would mind if this feature, available since the early 90s,
were no longer available. For me, that would be a showstopper.
