I agree, it's a stretch.

I can't think of any better rationale for the change than "It might
conceivably be convenient to someone at some point", which falls a
fair bit short of being convincing.

To be honest, it took so little time to implement this suggestion that
I didn't realise until later that there was no realistic use-case and
nothing to say about the patch.

Sorry for the noise.
