How practical is this? Have you given any careful thought to the
way that Axiom will be developed and maintained in 30 years? Do you 
relate your objections to the long term goals? Or is the issue that
the change breaks syntax highlighting in a special axiom emacs mode?

Lets try a thought experiment. 
Suppose you propose that Fricas should now be democratic. 
Suppose you suggest that Waldek's trunk should become a branch. 
Suppose you suggest that only approved changes go into Fricas. 
Suppose you don't approve of the new non-literate changes.
Suppose you reject changes that Waldek has made. 

What would you feel would be a rational response from Waldek?
