Highly entertaining, I wish someone did a screenplay with this.<p>On another note: I do maintain one or two a-tiny-bit-popular repos on Github myself, and every time I receive a comment or pull request I'm always surprised how much that "job" is not worth doing. Most contributions are useless and most developers behave like spoiled, stupid, five year olds. (No offence, I'm including myself here.)
How does allowing `:`, `\n`, and a bunch of other characters that might be problematic in a Unix or Windows shell fix anything? What if every time someone demanded "change these seven characters," project maintainers complied?<p>Without a test, without a clear problem spec, without an explanation of why those specific seven characters are <i>the</i> fix.<p>What would happen then?
