> Ping again! My patch still applies cleanly to trunk.
That's great, but we're in feature freeze now, so the patch will
probably have to wait until the trunk is unfrozen for changes (and thus
will only be incorporated in whatever version comes after Emacs 24.4).
That's a pity: this patch has been available in its current form for nearly a year, and I last pinged a couple of weeks before feature freeze. But I await 24.4 with impatience too!
