I think it's important to be pro-active about trying to spot
any issues that might affect end users before they happen.

The goal is noble, but asking the platform to perform an impossible
task and subjectively judging if the failure mode is acceptable is
not the way to do so, I would have to say.

I leave it up to you whether you want to accept the patch to remove
it, but with it included we at least *know* what the failure modes
are, since we get user reports about it.

That's the reason I put it in there to begin with. Because I have no
idea how all these pieces play together with systems in the wild, and
I'd like to pro-actively find out about that.
