[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
Hi !


Between grep3.4 and grep3.5, the grep message output type matching binary files (without the -a option added) changed from stdout to stderr. This results in the inability to pipe in matching messages, resulting in significant changes to the user experience. But this modification doesn't actually do much. Could you consider reversing this change?
