Not my call but I doubt such a patch would be approved. If you want that
behavior use the supplied functions. Enabling a change in this behavior via
configuration will never fly and if we make it the default there would be no
way to get at the unaligned value.
You need a stronger argument than making lives a little easier. Conformance
with specs, or at least a majority of other systems, would at least have the
inter-operability argument.
