I would really love this to become main= stream. I have concerns about this patch that I have expressed in the past. I'm not going to apply it... since it's a global change that affects all kernel developers, I don't think I *should* apply it. I would recommend sending it directly to Linus; if you can get an ack from him, I'll apply it then. Thanks, jon
