Hi Bram and thanks for your interest.
It's a usability issue and like such should have priority (in my
opinion).

As for the patch, there is a link to an updated version in the vim
patches page, which applies cleanly in 7.2 and with some offsets in 
vim-7.2 patchlevel 65.

When we updated the vim patches page with John Becket, we've tried to
communicate with the author, but we've got no response; anyway I will try
again (in the next few days, since I am busy now). If it's not possible to
be in touch, I can re-diff it once more (if doesn't apply to the last
patchlevel) and I can send it to you.

I am using this patch from the day it was published and I didn't noticed
any (at least visible) misbehavior but some more testing is needed of
course. 

Regards,
Ag.
