Changes (by YitzGale):

  * failure:  => None/Unknown


Comment:

 This suggestion enjoyed universal support,
 and a patch was provided. It was also
 universally agreed that the exact syntax
 isn't that important. It ended up being
 neglected only due to bikeshedding over
 the admittedly minor syntax issue.

 I propose that instead of the automated
 priority demotion that this issue has now
 suffered, the provided patch should be
 applied forthwith. Unless someone who
 prefers a different syntax cares enough
 to provide an alternative patch immediately,
 in which case that one should be applied
 forthwith instead.
