I'm on the outside of this one, but I'll chime in anyways.

Coding style debates are a waste of time in my opinion.
Developers should optimize for the collective and not the
individual.  It is imperative for someone else to be able
to pick up your code and immediately understand it.
Diverging from the established conventions of the large
body of code is just a distraction.

If it were me, I would rather not worry about the cosmetics
and my own personal style.  I would want the functional
change accepted into upstream.   Currently there's an
established coding convention that has obviously not been
followed.

But the final decision is not mine, so take this for what
it's worth.



cheers, jerry
