Please install your patch.
Now we have to make a decision for `locate-with-filter' and
`locate-in-alternate-database'. These two commands currently pass
their interactive arg on to locate, which is undocumented and probably
unintentional, but could nevertheless be considered a "feature".
Now there are three things we could do. We could do something now and
something else after the release, if appropriate.
The three choices are: no longer pass the arg on, pass the arg on and
leave it undocumented, sticking with the current state of affairs (no
visible difference to the user), pass on and properly document.
Problem with the last two: I do not know how well tested the
unintentional "feature" is.
I think BOTH of these functions should pass the arg along.
Then behavior will be unchanged. After the release we could
document this feature and then get any bugs fixed.
