I'm +1 on this. The change our secret neighbors will have to make is 
very simple, and while it causes a minor annoyance at modification time, 
it does solve a major annoyance of the people with large working 
copies.  And our non-secret neighbors will get a warning ping during the 
RC soak, which should give them plenty time to adapt if they so wish.

+1 to ban the niggles.
