I disagree. The name of the file is "FOR-RELEASE", not
"FOR-BREAKING". If I call a taxi, it does not imply that I am
responsible if the driver runs over half a dozen people on the way to
me. And I don't see how the person putting something into FOR-RELEASE
can be held responsible for the particular code someone then places
into Emacs when he has no chance to _anticipate_ the outcome.
Unless the FOR-RELEASE item is "Please insert some random untested
stuff that looks good but will likely break." In that case, I would
consider the person to be somewhat responsible.
