?

The way things are going at present, I'm just not going to apply a
series which Sashiko "failed to apply". And that's cool, I'll just
wait for a version which Sashiko was able to apply. And then not
apply unless all Sashiko questions are resolved or convincingly refuted.

Question please: if Sashiko finds an "issue" in v3 and then v4 comes
out with changelog words which justifies the questionable alteration, can
Sashiko parse that changelog justification and think "OK, never mind"?
