You've missed the point, entirely, again. *Sigh*.
I said that the precedent of allowing emacs in main is a good
precedent, and that it was not an accident. Evidence for that is that
Bruce thinks it was perfectly OK. He was there at the time, you
know. He doesn't have some final say on anything, but certainly he is
good evidence for what the *precedent* has, in fact, been, and whether
it was accidental or intentional.

Yes, you're the chief troublemaker. :) Of course it matters whether
something is pleasing to you, for the simple reason that we're trying
to reach agreement among many individuals, and you are one of them.
