Well, it's indeed doesn't matter much technically, and not important
for one case. But as I pointed out, there're ~30 or something forks
around. Maybe it would be good visibility, and well, PR, if there were
official mirrors on popular git hosting sites where that number
(dozen or so) could be seen directly.

Otherwise, having asked if it's already there, I better just put up
my little stuff like everybody else did so far, and hopefully proceed
to submit patches/advocate them instead ;-).
