Hi,
yup, I will not. I realized I wrote a nonsense after I read Javier's
post with --enable-strict bug. That makes much more sense, than what I
was "proposing" here with the --enable-maintainer-mode overload.
Still, after this change, users may change their habit of not passing
--enable-maintainer-mode to use --disable-maintainer-mode on affected
projects, which would be, at least for me, quite surprising change. But
maybe I'm just not an average user after all ;)
Bye,
Milan
