If we're going to touch this behavior in the back branches, I would
vote for changing it the same as we do in HEAD. I do not think that
making a user-visible behavior change in a minor release and then a
different change in the next major is good strategy.
But, given the relative shortage of complaints from the field, I'd
be more inclined to just do nothing in back branches. There might
be people out there with code depending on the current behavior,
and they'd be annoyed if we change it in a minor release.
