Hi,

Leaving unnecessary initialization and funny indentation aside for a 
moment, what about the objection that it might not be necessary?

Keep in mind: your change (as every change) bears the potential to 
introduce bugs and to complicate the user interface.  The change must be 
worth those risks.

So could you make a case (if you resubmit a patch, in the commit message, 
please) why your change is desirable?

Thanks,
Dscho
