I will let you be the one to tell that to my grandmother when her
Kerberos client package is updated without her knowledge.  With the
engineering talent available I am sure that a better solution can be

Think about this problem with your vendor hat on.  How would you explain
such a change to Red Hat's customers?   How does Red Hat measure the
Help Desk support costs from deploying such a change?

Something to think about.   Please do not respond further.
