Because the proportion of code that I *don't* own (and hence can't
personally assign to the FSF) is currently so small, it is not a
disaster if there remains some code which has not been assigned.
However, going forward, I hope to reach a state where all
non-"trivial" contributions (i.e., those meritting copyright
protection) are either assigned or are rejected because they have not
been assigned.
This isn't a major burdon on contributors, imo. It's just basic
professionalism, by several metrics (auditability, accountability, and
deliberately formal process).
