Good and I believe so too.  

Then I'd like to say I couldn't imagine any reason
why we should kick out your code.

I couldn't see any advantage in enabling all patterns
over your code.  On the contrary, I'm afraid it might 
introduce, at least, possible problem in default setting,
especially for a TeX user of non-ascii (or non-latin(?) 
or non-alphabetic(?) or multi-byte) language, who needs 
almost no pattern usually.

I feel your code would be, aesthetically, much better and
much smarter than enabling all patterns.
