And it will require the need for a rewrite of the configuration and
doesn't help people which want or have to live with current versions.

The patch was meant for the current (and maybe older) versions and I'm
just unable to understand the high resistance to include such a simple
two-line patch. Maybe the resistance is motivated by the header itself
and not the patch, I don't know and have to speculate.

Anyway, I think all is said and who ever wants that patch might be able
to find it in the ML.
