Issue #9766 has been updated by Ken Barber. Assignee deleted (Ken Barber)
After chatting to James I think I'm not wanting to make a decision on this one by myself. I would want a greater debate from the community I think as changing this known behaviour is dangerous for existing installations, and is to some extent the proposal has some subjective aspects. I'm going to continue to watch this but remove myself as an assignee until something is agreed - but if you can state your case on the list Doug and reference this ticket that would be the best I think.

"example.com" below is the domain name.
