I don't see a problem with this, but given the bootstrap line means we can't
initially merge anything, I was hoping such a tweak could be discussed as a
proposal itself because (a) if we don't take the governance route, it's a
waste of energy (ii) I'd really like to validate the proposal system by
using it to amend itself (3) the "can't touch master or blead until the
document is moved out of bootstrap by a vote" means that nobody can sneak
anything in before you get a chance to do that.

On the other hand, if people do want to discuss it and there seems to be
a decent number of people in favour, I don't mind amending the proposal
pre-voting - after all, if it turns out to be wrong somebody can put forward
a proposal to unamend it post-adoption instead :)
