Well at least I think the printk change is a good one to implement and there 
wasn't much protest to it at least.

If you're looking for another change request I think dropping the trailing
white space check would be good a idea because a lot of maintainers already
handle that automatically and it is not really worth bothering the "leaf
developers" with because that can be trivially automated.

Also I still think --file needs to go, or at least be replaced with
--file-force and warning. See the recent unpleasant incident it caused
again, e.g.
