The arguments for and against the patch could be brought against partial() itself, so I don't understand the -1's at all. I know I hardly every use partial() (apart from the performance aspect, it looks like a completely useless addition to me), but from a performance standpoint, partial.skip has as much usefulness as partial() itself.
