That has been done already recently.  It's not likely something that
anybody feels particularly happy about, but it seems like the best way
to reduce friction between my and others' priorities and thresholds of
frustration.

On the plus side, should a contributor post regular git patch sets on
the developer list, I'd have what it takes to commit/merge them as a
regular patch set easily rather than one humongous commit, if consensus
can be reached.

So maybe the net positive effect might be more than just saving people
from some of the uglier outbursts of my frustration.
