I think there's only one fundamental disagreement; and that is:
do we think that things are now totally fixed and no new major issues

If the answer is no, then imho my patch is the right approach; it will limit the damage and doesn't make
the people suffer who don't need extended config space.
If the answer is yet, then my patch is not needed.
This is a judgment call; I'm skeptical, others are more optimistic that after 2 years of messing around
they have finally found the last golden fix.
