I am not an emacs contributor, but I think Jonas is saying, "I love emacs and I am the primary author of one of the two most important emacs packages. If contributing to emacs is frustrating even for me, think how many people will give up. We need to change our culture." I would be very careful about describing him as "attention-seeking." He is a very diligent and responsive package maintainer who works *constantly* to improve an important piece of emacs infrastructure.
