Which is why the changes I made are very conservative and in fact don't
change the organization of the pages in any way. The only thing I did

Then let them speak here.

Dave, instead of just saying , "I strongly object" why not provide some
specific and constructive feedback? That would allow us to build a patch
that will satisfy the community and provide a compromise for our
external vendors that is neutral and fair?
