Actually I didn't even mean to send those attachments. That was just my attempt at making the commercial detection more readable (and hopefully a bit more accurate). It was in the course of developing this patch that I realized the fundamental flaw in the approach. When I first drafted the message with the attachments I was doing it simultaneously with drafting the patch, and was going to submit my 'fix'. I just forgot to remove the attachment.
While it might make the system a bit more accurate, it too will most likely not work.
