As was made clear at the beginning of the thread, that's what they
*think* they want, without any experience with a system that actually
behaves that way.  And yes I do believe I know better, both from knowing
how the system works and from actual experience with the ill-considered
patch that's now in HEAD.  I'm willing to provide a "U" modifier but
I think it will be a serious error to make that the default behavior.
