Sure, please go ahead and apply the patch to the launcher please, better
that than nothing :)

However, I don't really agree on the "we want to keep patches as small
as possible" argument. If you apply that policy, the coding stlye will
always be slightly messed up. Also, there is never a moment where you
can "safely" change a project's coding style. People always have
patches and branches.

I vote for better now than later as the API is guaranteed to grow,
and if it's in the right style now people are at least shown what
the right style is, rather than having their commits changed at
some later point and sitting on even larger patches to a bigger
code base which don't apply any longer.
