Conflicting feedback is annoying, but I disagree with the other comment. Not only does it potentially complicate backporting, it also is no longer a strict revert. In which case it must not be labeled as such. Easier is to keep the revert unmodified, and add the comment to the commit message. Most important is the Link to our earlier thread that explains the history. If the process appears byzantine, if you prefer I can also send it. Thanks, Willem
