As a general plea, please be sure to record the rationale and decisions in the appropriate place, such as the tracker and/or commit message. I think it's fine for such minor decisions to be made in high bandwidth forums such as IRC, it's also incumbent on the participants to be mindful of the larger community of core developers and users. Not doing so makes our process less transparent, puts legitimacy at risk, and alienates users and developers who may not be privileged to those out-of-band discussions.
