Not exactly. You left the link which was the main thing I wanted to add! A full 
revert would have been anti-social. The sociable thing is to ask the committer 
to do it. It's their commit and we are all in this together. OK.

+1 on your change to my commit.

Go ahead and get an opinion from trademarks@. I think that they will say that 
this fits a registered trademark other than the US trademark. For example the 
one in China. A clarification is needed, but not on legal-discuss.

Best Regards,
Dave
