I wouldn't oppose such a patch.
But note that sometimes you might prefer the current behavior, and also
some code (mostly `diff-mode`, IIRC) might use some of the generated
functions from ELisp where we may rely on the current behavior.
IOW, just a heads up that it could require adjustments elsewhere.
