Perhaps, but would that be any change from now?  I literally left that
for other people to take care of in packages that I maintained
(metacity, libwnck) for a long time for two reasons: (1) I couldn't at
the time, (2) why bother when someone (or something) else will handle
it -- I'd rather concentrate on useful stuff.
