I'm not the OP, but if something raises my ire almost enough to make me blog about it, it probably isn't going to irritate me enough to fork a large software project. But the lower the bar for submitting a patch, the more likely you'll get one. And the more everyone will benefit from it (assuming it's a net positive patch).
