There are very valid reasons not to talk about auto-decoding again:
- it's too late to remove because breakage
- attempts at removing it were _already_ tried
- it has been debated to DEATH
- there is an easy work-around
So any discussion _now_ would have the very same structure of the
discussion _then_, and would lead to the exact same result. It's quite
tragic. And I urge the real D supporters to let such conversation die
(topics debated to death) as soon as they appear.

Either decide a list of conditions before we can break to remove it, or
yes lets let this idea go. It isn't helping anyone.
