If you want to participate in a collaborative development effort you
should pay attention to other people's concerns. I don't get the final
say in whether or not this patch gets merged, but there's a decent
chance that I'm going to be the one who has to remove the entries again
once the backlight mess is fixed up. My life would be significantly
easier if the entries are unambiguously identified in such a way that I
can remove them without having to dig through git history to figure out
where each came from. Is that really an unreasonable request?
