It's partially a "read-only" habit, but it's also that I'm just not confident
in deciding whether those actually *are* good suggestions, or put differently:
it's the public face of btrfs, and I don't want to accidentally do something to
"ruin" it (to use some hyperbole).

However, if somebody gives me the go-ahead, I might just edit the wiki myself
(though I don't know enough to be able to edit the kernel news entry ;-) ).
