What tells you that this isn't what Michael or anybody else already
does, and why would it matter? In this community, you don't really get
a say in what people think is important, or how they spend their time,
as responsibilities are volunteered.

Michael mentioned that the change is only likely to happen once it's
possible to make it seamless, so this wouldn't take anyone's time, so
contributors can focus on what's important to them.

As mentioned *many* times on this list, we're talking about one thing,
and one thing only. Bringing up other cases where changes might be
needed is probably best done separately, in their own thread, and in
their own time.
