Well, we have to agree to disagree, then.  I can see no even slightly
relevant political advantages for this (I am apparently in
disagreement with Richard here, even given rather similar goals), and
it adds no new functionality whatsoever, at the cost of backward
incompatibilities.

If there are no new points to make, I suggest we all just wait with
baited breath what Richard will decide, and then either of us will
have the opportunity to be exasperated.  Though it does not sound like
you in particular would mind much either which way.
