You mean an on/off variable for the feature? I think such variables
are welcome when there is a choice between 2 sensible behaviours,
subject to user's preference, and this even if one alternative is much
"better" than the other (in the eyes of the majority). But for the
sensible_browser_position feature, there is only one good alternative:
Enabled. The other one doesn't qualify as sensible in any way, I think.
No, what's probably awaited is a rewrite. The feature is great, but
the patch code is unfortunately not.
Bye! Alain.
