Is that considered bad form? I tend to do that too. My C++ isn't
(yet...) so strong so I think it polite to note that I did something
and what my reasoning was. That way others could estimate the chance
that changing something bad I might have done has the kind of
repercussions that changing the code of more experienced C++ authors
might have.

Is there a way to check the "blame" for a specific section of a larger
file from the Big Serious Editors? I imagine there must be, in which
case just noting the reasoning should do.

BTW, let me take this moment to chime in and complimenting you on your
spree of fixes and updates. Absolutely wonderful to see such
enthusiasm.

Yours,
Kas.
