You're kidding, right?  Can you cite even a single message that
supports the change?  My memory is that everyone who voiced an opinion
said it was a bad idea, then the thread devolved into discussions of
alternatives and how they were bad ideas too.  That latter bit doesn't
change the basic fact that everyone started by agreeing this was a bad
idea for userland.
