This is very true... This is a big difference...

But like I said, if some things can't be tuned via command line
parameters, patching only remains...

I'd never push for my "custom" patch (attached) to be included
upstream in Debian... But in my personal repository only my judgment
matters :)

In any case, documenting any changes at all, is key...
