Before I consider my wishes too carefully, I've moved the patch back to Waiting
on Author, for the reason that it seems wrong to force it elsewhere today as
long as the author (you) would like it there. Not that I have some kind of
authority over patch disposition in any case.
I had put it straight to RWF because it seemed clearly not intended to be
applied. No political statement or harm intended, and maybe that determination
was not even correct.
