A reasonable amount of work would have to occur.

I guess my question was to ambiguous in it's wording. I was not trying to get at the technical means of "allowing". That can be done by the author, albeit laboriously, without any patches whatsoever. Indeed, at least one (ex)monk has done this.

The "allowing" I was alluding to, is the policy of allowing him, and honouring, that right. Which requires no patches at all, just the decision to allow it.

Just remember we have feelings too and that harmless words sometimes arent.

If you read the comments I made, in the context in which they were made, you shoud be able to avoid interpreting them as saying things I never said.

Should I quote every earlier post in the thread in order to ensure my comments are read in context?

This thread was never, in any of the posts, mine nor any of the others about the implementation of this site.

There is not a single line or phrase that even vaguely alludes to critisism of that. (I just re-read them all to confirm my memory).

I am totally mystified by your interpetation.
