Thanks for reminding.  I was involved in the review and remember
that everybody was happy with the direction.  The topic was left on
the list without getting picked up by a mere accident.

Now it is queued.  Let's make sure nobody is depending on the
%(atom) vs %(atom:) distinction by merging it to 'next' soonish.

Those who don't raise stink while the change is in 'next' but only
do so after it hits a release won't be heard ;-)
