I couldn't agree more. I found your reply very disappointing, and
insulting.

No one noticed them, no one thought they were any good, or everyone
was just too busy and forgot about them. If you don't get any
response to a patch, send it again about a week later.

"I don't have commit access, and I wasn't able or didn't bother to
convince anyone else with commit access that it was a good idea."

"the right answer" can be very subjective. You're doing the same
thing you're accusing Greg of doing: you're stuck on the fact that
your way is the only right way.

sound like this is a bad thing.
