Since nozaki-san is being sick this week (he couldn't go to his work
Monday and Tuesday), and really busy for his real world job even
without the sickness,  I'm writing what I've heard...

Accoridng to nozaki-san, this patch has several problems.
One of most important problems is that this is not using the already
existing mechanism to keep compatibility of encoding modules.

Also, why don't you just use the already existing patch made by
nozaki-san to implement this feature?
