Let me add the rationale for this proposal: 1) Support the (direct or indirect) use by GPLv2 programs. The GPLv2 license is still widely used, see [1]. 2) It fixes a disadvantage of GPL2-only applications w.r.t. proprietary or MIT-licensed software. 3) It is one of the options that RMS recommends, see [2].
