Well, maybe not happier.  But at least they will be forced to write a 
patch (if they really want to use git _their_ way, and they'll have to 
defend their patch if they break all other people's work flow), instead of 
writing a lot of long and useless emails.

IOW I do not think "we" have to do something about it.
