Hi,

Thanks for the suggestion. :)

I have resubmitted your request as a bug so it is not lost.

Please note that the freeze for the next point update is this weekend.
Worst case, this may have to wait for the next point release.  Although,
with my release-notes hat on, I certainly hope we can have the bug fixed
earlier.

That happened, so after some discussion we've decided to skip the update
to stable. Thanks for your help with resolving the issue.
