Nah, there isn't much to become unhappy about.  

I however suspect that the alternative would certainly be much nicer
and easier to understand, which is to rebuild the 7-patch series
c58ae96fc4..d82dfa7f5b but bugs already fixed, instead of doing this
patch to take us back to a known buggy state and then fix the result
with 5 more patches.  Is that what you meant?
