Hi, There are some reasonable changes from (a) pep8 point of view (which we're trying to stick anyway) and (b) performance point of view. Rejecting such patches seems weird to me.
Also, instead of rejecting patches and still asking maintainers to check on something is even more stupid. If we want to go this route, just ask the guy to do per-addon changes and assign those to maintainers. Or simply go ahead and apply reasonable patches globally on the whole scripts folder.
