Because I don't want to waste time commenting on it -- it's not a
topic of interest for me, not a use-case I need.

There's always pushing and pulling between people wanting a feature
and people wanting the product to stay as clean, lean, and focused as
possible.  Like you (Remy), I'm usually on the clean, lean, and
focused side.

But when more than one or two users who seem to have a clue of what
they're doing express desire for the same feature, and it's a small
enough feature so that it can be easily enabled or disabled in a
configuration file, and at least one committer other than myself
appears interested as well, I don't mind giving it to them at the
expense of a little "technical focus."

It's not as much a +1 to the feature itself, it's a +1 to an open
communication channel and a professional debate.
