What good does this change do on its own?

I find that it is a preparation. - If this addition could not be accepted,
the following update step would also be discussed under an other perspective,
wouldn't it?

It's purposeless, creates unnecessary patches to review
and generally wastes other people's time.

Please don't purposefully waste other people's time.
It makes your patch proposals _less_ likely to be applied.
