I agree that pushing every user-created ugly workaround into mainline
would be a Bad Thing.  A review of them, however, might catch a common
failure mode that we should take into account in mainline.

I would not worry about you going immediatly out of business -- for
every bug we fix or workaround, I am sure a few more will spring up.
