I know Sebastian well, and I would hope that he lends his substantial
competence to making sure that the changes that affect end users are
correct and that I do not introduce another regression.

Besides, he is German, so I tried to spell it out clearly what I wish him
to do in return for my addressing his problem.

That was the entire reasoning behind my "scolding". I am sorry that you
understood it to be meant negatively. It was not.

Ciao,
Johannes
