Hello,

Nothing to apologise for.  If anything, I am sorry for being slow with
getting this done causing you and others some grief when this breaks.

Are you having an issue with this, actually?  If so, what platform and
kernel version?  If you don't mind sharing - it's nice to document more
cases where this is causing issues...

So, no dance moves? :-)

No worries.  Not a big issue :)  It has to do with readability, as when top
and bottom posts mix up, then it's hard to follow the conversation (plus
the ettiquete of posting on the Linux-related mailing lists applies here,
too).

Thank you!
