I think this is merely trading one regression for another, IMO 
*slightly* nastier one.  And no, I'm not personally affected by this bug 
:-)

Your approval as definitely-not-our-linux-libre-maintainer would be one 
of the major factors.  If you have no opinion, I doubt anyone else will 
object.  Realistically, the only way to tease out any unknown users out 
there is to try it.

Kind regards,
