Then the users can keep their bugs. There is not enough time before the tag freeze for me to make a large change like that, and frankly with the amount of time between when I submitted the patch and when this issue was brought up I've lost interest in working on cosmetics.

Not trying to be rude or point fingers, just stating how things stand.
