You completely, utterly and totally misread the meaning and spirit of what I
said.
To reiterate, if the maintainer is responsive, my opinion is that is a courtesy
to notify him/her.
That's all. Some people are more attached and involved with their code and
would appreciate the gesture.
No need to imagine that the maintainer is demonstrating "unchecked abusive
behavior."
For Pete's sake.

We need to nip this kind of thing in the bud.
“Artistic (volatile) temperament” is just a euphemistic way of saying “engages
in unchecked abusive behaviour toward their peers”, and no member of the
community should be expected to bend over backwards to tolerate this or to turn
a blind eye to it.
Even more specifically nobody at Fedora should be forced to ask special
permission from or give special notification to specific individuals over and
above the established procedures before doing their work. Their commit
privileges / karma / following the established procedure give them that
permission.
If someone makes a change to your code, start with the premise that the person
who made the change did so in good faith, and respond appropriately from there.
