(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately weren't resolved
at the time.)

I think this is the correct solution here -- adding a user option for
this could make sense (if many wanted this functionality), but I haven't
really seem much demand for that, so I think doing it via this hook is
the right way to go.

So I'm closing this bug report.
