Yes, I see the smiley.  But I have to comment anyway ;-)

The normal steady state of a healthy open source project operates under the
principle that it generally is easier to get forgiveness than permission.

What I omitted from my description of the process is that my change was
clearly a disruptive one where the ramifications of the change were
difficult to determine in advance.  It took me several iterations to get it
close, and even then it has taken Stefan a few iterations (including one
just a few hours ago) to get it right.
