I don't just *think* there are style violation, I *know* there are. My
skimming through the patch has shown me that it isn't ready to be applied as
is. I understand your frustration, but this whole discussion has probably
cost me more time than to look into the issue myself. I feel that continuing
like this is simply not a good investment of my time.
I quite intentionally did not take ownership of the ticket, BTW. I currently
don't have an environment to quickly test this. Even if I wanted to apply
the patch I'd first have to set one up. I hope someone else feels more
motivated than me.
CU, Ingo
