If you're so hell-bent on doing your improvements on-top or aside of them, you
take his patch, add your stuff ontop or rewrite it, test it and then you send
it out and say why yours is better.

Then the maintainer decides.

There's no need to debate ad absurdum - you simply offer your idea and the
maintainer decides which one is better. As it has always been done.

Thx.
