Comment:

 Well, well.  I turn my back for three seconds...

 This is a serious problem, which will require serious effort to solve.
 That can be achieved with sound arguments and shipping code—most of all,
 by being right.  Neither gratuitous metadata changes nor gratuitous
 profanity solves anything, and both are inappropriate for a bug tracker.

 (Passing through in a hurry.  I perhaps may have a few more words later as
 for the prior comments.)
