If my point has any kind of importance :
1) I don't CARE what you choose as long as it's not gonna change
every 20 commits ;)
2) I don't think it's important as TMCI is NOT going to be
enabled by default on .7-release.
3) I'm fed up with following this thread : only power users are
using TCMI and most of them are egocentric, using a different
environement : you won't ever agree alltogether.
