I'm not sure it was on purpose: the log message which introduced the
above says "to closer match the behavior of C code".  But I guess you
are right that someone could become annoyed, so I added a new
defcustom and pushed the change to the master branch.

Note that this option is only effective on GUI frames.

With that, I'm closing the bug report.

Thanks.
