Hello Ross,
thanks for noticing that. Would you mind getting a bit further with the contribution?
* Have you tested the change already on some configuration?
* Could you drop a diff for the change?
* Could you give a brief description of the benefit gained with the update please?
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
