Perhaps we should discuss it here and come to a consensus. In the
meantime let's leave the bug reports open to make sure it doesn't get
forgotten.
If we can't agree then I suppose Ian M. will have to make a decree.

It won't get removed if I have anything to do with it. Its removal is
part of a very heated and often overly-personal discussion regarding
the proposed BSD filesystem standard merger on the FSSTND list. I
don't think we should discuss it further here.
