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.
I have got an other opinion about this.
Please don't purposefully waste other people's time.
I do not want to "waste" your time. - But I can imagine that I stress your
software development attention to some degree as I am publishing a significant
number of update suggestions according to a bit of static source code analysis.
It makes your patch proposals _less_ likely to be applied.
The acceptance varies as usual.
I see also another option.
* Can the first three update steps from this small patch series be integrated
while the fourth needs further adjustments (where I went a bit too far)?
* Do you prefer to squash the last two update steps together?
