I am completely out of line here, but this statement sounds pretty
detrimental to any potential future contributors who would want to
start small. If a contributor is going in the wrong path, it would be
helpful to point it out to him and *suggested* help him in the right
direction, rather than steam rolling his efforts. Even if a committer
wishes to re do a patch, he/she should point out the mistakes in the
contributors patch before posting a different patch.
