Patch is for 0.18.1, but would be easy to update for other versions...  
Only problem with actually committing the change would be that it may 
encourage more people to use Trac for RFE's.  On second thought if all 
the "RFE without a patch, marking as invalid" comments aren't noticed, 
maybe people won't notice one actually getting a fix, either.
