A WIP marker is nice, but I don't agree it's somehow an affront to
post a patch in the middle of a discussion. Even if Roland had
intended it as a final RFA, everyone should be willing to consider
changes to their patches --- even after they've been committed.
Being inflexible, making unreasonable demands, and things like that
are what's offensive.
