Well, v1 and v3-v5 saw comments only from me. There was a comment on v2 by Kristoffer Haugsbakk about phrasing in proposed log message. v6 had Eric's "Meh, either way".

I was not enthused in the topic myself, but was reviewing and suggesting improvements merely to help you turn the patch into a shape that would interest others, but the thing is, if the current output is good enough, it is perfectly normal that there is no more room to make material improvements, and it is not your fault.
