If I do contact the maintainer before I do any change, that means I'm making a commitment to do that change, which is not something I want to do.
> If you're just looking to pump and dump, I'd rather not involve you in the process, only to have to do work to fix/rm code down the road.
I think you should always assume with any PR, that it's a pump and dump, unless you have a history with whoever raised the PR.

I don't think it's a waste, it's an issue that I'm facing (or a feature that I want), so writing the code is for my own need, I'm sharing it back in case other people want it.

There doesn't have to be a commitment to do anything. You are opening an issue and starting a dialogue. If you then disappear, someone else can come along later and implement/fix it with the benefit of the original discussion.
