As mentioned in my earlier review, I truly believe that this comment block is
not necessary because the code changes includes in the patch accomplish what
is described here and I think that sets up enough of a precedent/example that
future changes in code should stick to that naming pattern.  No need for an
explicit comment block to highlight that.
