Considering that upstream rejected that proposal, I'd be very careful at
implementing this in Debian. First, it would set a precedent at Debian
taking position in that political space and second it would mean
carrying that patch around for ourselves, which is extra work for us.

So I don't think we should do this, but I will let other maintainers
weigh in before I close this issue.
