Hmm, you obvious has a different meaning of "functional" than I. How is 
converting a few hundred lines of "print nothing" to another few hundred lines 
of "print nothing" functional? What does it achieve?

I have already voiced my (admittedly selfish) concern: changing a few hundred 
lines of "print nothing" to another few hundred lines of "print nothing" means 
some of us who have substantial work-in-progress patches needs to spend a fair 
amount of time on rebase, and manually resolving conflicts from rebase.
