Could you please post a new thread, when you are ready to discuss this change?
It's not something terrible important for me right now, nor it is the right
time to press on the matter, while you are working your way through the

to see what possible breakage may happen from it.

I didn't noticed anything when I looked at it first two times, but this may
only means that I'm missing something obvious...
