So you're saying we should let you get away with it and just fix it
ourselves... How about you identify which patch broke it so we stand a
chance? But if then we decide the breakage is worse than the new
feature, and revert the patch, you'll scream bloody murder anyway so why
do I even bother? Clearly, so far there's no attempt to hold you to the
same standards we hold community drivers to, and you are in no way
motivated to improve our opinion of you by doing something voluntarily.
