No I did not.  I said _if_ we do not want to discuss it further then let's send
it there.  I said _if_ we do want to discuss it then let's discuss it at
emacs-devel.

As an enhancement request, this thread is done, IMO.  As a design discussion it
could continue, and the place for that is emacs-devel.

That wasn't decided, AFAIK.  If you want to discuss it further, please move it
to emacs-devel.  That's all I was saying.
