    @sitalkedia This change is pretty contentious, there are lot of questions 
about whether or not this is a good change.  I don't think discussing this here 
in github comments on a PR is the best form.  I think of PR comments as being 
more about code details -- clarity, tests, whether the implementation is 
correct, etc.  But here we're discussing whether the behavior is even 
desirable, as well as trying to discuss this in relation to other changes.  I 
think a better format would be for you to open a jira and submit a design 
document (maybe a shared google doc at first), where we can focus more on the 
desired behavior and consider all the changes, even if the PRs are smaller to 
make them easier to review.  
    
    I'm explicitly *not* making a judgement on whether or not this is a good 
change.  Also I do appreciate you having the code changes ready, as a POC, as 
that can help folks consider the complexity of the change.  But it seems clear 
to me that first we need to come to a decision about the end goal.
    
    Also, assuming we do decide this is desirable behavior, there is also a 
question about how we can get changes like this in without risking breaking 
things -- I have started a thread on dev@ related to that topic in general, but 
we should figure that for these changes in particular as well.
    
    @kayousterhout @tgravescs @markhamstra makes sense?
