I don't buy that argument. We have an attribute for exactly this purpose, so
we may as well use it. Uglifying the code for the sake of consistency with
previous releases doesn't seem like it gains us anything.
There is a patch that may be suitable for 4.1 in the PR, which you are free to
test and submit for that branch.
