Exactly. I know that your patch only follows the existing pattern, but it came 
to my attention when reviewing
it and I asked myself why we don't merge here. Hence the question is not really 
specifically to you but to
everyone. Having a brief look into the version history reveals that it has been 
like that since the module exists.
Hence I am not sure if anyone can provide a historical reasoning here. But 
probably we think together if this is
the behavior we want to keep for some reason or if we should change it.
