Dear Willem,
Yes, you're right. I noticed that the title of the patch I submitted yesterday was
incorrect; it should be "use" instead of "user." Additionally, the title was a bit
too long, so I resubmitted it.
As you mentioned, I took Eric's advice and removed the new config, directly
modifying the code instead. Since the title has changed, I didn't use the "PATCH v1"
format.
Thanks
