This STREQ issue is a good example. You chose to post an already
committed patch which did the renaming instead of first discussing the
approaches by which STREQ could be eliminated. IMO, it would have been
better to discuss the matter first and arrive at a consensus on how it
should be eliminated. (Or even if it should be eliminated.)
