It seems everyone in this thread is in agreement, so what would 
be the next step? It is a time-sensitive matter as preparations 
for 2.068's release are already underway. After two pings I 
failed to engage Walter Bright in this conversation; I don't 
think I should just reopen my pull request a second time, and I 
fear that if I merge someone else's pull request, I just might 
get my commit privileges revoked :)
