It's good to know that someone realized immediately after my patch. I
wanted to know how much it would really hurt others' habits, and a
discussion about it would probably have been too artificial. That's why
I did it without prior discussion.

I rarely cd. I edit pages from the root of the repo with (in my
example, I'll pretend to edit membarrier(2)):
(previous to subsections):
vi m[TAB]2[TAB]memb[TAB]
(after subsections were introduced, but before this change):
vi m[TAB]2/memb[TAB]
(after this patch):
vi m[TAB]m[TAB]2/memb[TAB]
I agree it's two more keystrokes, and it took me so long to decide to
change it because two keystrokes all the time are not the most friendly
thing in the world, but I think I could live with them.
Do you still think I should revert it?
I guess I'll receive a lot more emails like that in the following days,
so I'll wait a little bit more before considering reverting it, but
yeah, I may do it; I'm still unsure about what to do.
Kind regards,
Alex
