To be clear, I don't mean to blame you for the time that has passed. But 
you were probably the best person to notice this regression, and 
understand why it happened, early enough.

Personally, I've looked at this bug report before, and could only tell 
that the documentation needed updating (but the changed behavior is 
fine). That's not my impression anymore.

Thanks.
