Someone once chewed me a second butt hole for not using the imperative
mood so I know some people care intensely about this but I think so long
as you can understand the description it's fine.  I will never send a
patch for that maintainer's subsystem again, btw, which is probably
grateful for and now I can poop twice as fast so we're both winners.

Especially in the 0/4 patch which is going to be discarded.  Who cares?
