Well, I think Ivan should have certainly replied on the original thread
(where I marked the patch RwF after Fujii's recommendation) before
detaching it and reviving the patch.

Better yet, the original thread should not have been detached at all.

Now having read the active thread it seems this patch was pushed through
at the last moment despite some objections from Amit.

I can see there are new proposals for syntax post-commit on the thread.

Honestly, I'm at a loss for what to say. This just seems wrong.
