So, do you want to serve the dogmatic vanilla users, or do you want to 
serve everybody? If you serve everybody, the dogmatic vanilla users still 
end up being able to paste a link from a dashed objectbox anyway, so, 
what's the problem with that?

The problem is that it is not easy to contribute to a help patch as 
compared to a wiki. Therefore, things must be done so that it becomes as 
easy to contribute to a help patch as it is to contribute to a wiki.
