Hello, I never dived into quilt.pm myself. I think it was done by Raphael Hertzog a while ago. I don't feel very confident with modifying this code at this point of the release.
Could someone prepare and test a patch? I recognize that this seem
overkill given how simple the change is, but ... I have a very sparse
time right now and I don't have the time to fix things if I mess
things up...
Thanks in advance,
Mt.

What I am really interested in is knowing whether God could have
created the world in a different way; in other words, whether the
requirement of logical simplicity admits a margin of freedom.
