  //Why not?//
  
  So far I have heard a lot of vague reasons ("code is fragile" "we want to rewrite it") but no //specific// reasons. I understand those general concerns but I don't think they should be de facto blockers. It's very frustrating to be blocked by generalities and not have this patch evaluated on its merits. This is a trivial patch that does nothing more than add back code which was previously working just fine.

  That's because it's basically a hidden feature for experts. Those are the people who want this.
