I think it's not so nice to make someone responsible for something without 
asking him before.

Let's not make things too complicated. We don't have many patches in 
bugzilla, and as we get to see them we can still do whatever is necessary. 
If things change over time, we can still ask for implementing something 
like what you suggest.

Keep to Einstein's rule "Make it as simple as possible, but not simpler"
