"minor" is your judgement. And so far there is zero evidence that this
change could cause undesired effects. So we have users suffering this
bug (yes, it is obvious to some of us that it is a bug) and, OTOH, we
have FUD.

Sorry Eli, but as much as I appreciate your opinions, I'm not submitting
the feature for *your* approval. You are not the only one that can
approve (or reject) the patch (once we have one.)

You are decided to block a solution for this issue, just because. Got
it.
