Thanks as always for highlighting more interesting bits from the flat-and-bland-list-of-changes which is what I prepare as the release notes.

I actually meant that this is "not a common mistake that deserves our bandwidth but because a change was already made to help such a case, why not take it".

We can probably rewrite _without_ mentioning our expectation of how common it would be.

    A user can forget to make a script file executable before giving
