Oops :) 
But I guess that answers my question whether the change handler is required in the 1st place ... :)

It's still tracked on our i18n branches, but given that the last release is out (see https://mail.kde.org/pipermail/release-team/2015-August/008835.html), I think we will stop tracking that branch soon. (PS: the list is kde-i18n-doc at kde.org). This is quite dead code at this point...

Well, the limited impact is hinted at by the use of the verb `may` ... Anyway, given the other reactions I'll only bother the i18n team once their opinion becomes the last obstacle to shipping!

KDE PIM applications were immune to that issue because certain KDELibs classes use the parameter, which made it all the more annoying that other (e.g. Kate-based) applications weren't. Sadly this setting wasn't published via a GUI.
