I am tempted to grab some pop-corn and say "bring it on guys".

Still calming down is the better choice for both sides.
It think both of your views have some important essense in them, once
the aggression surrounding it is removed:

1. I agree with Robert that filing a bug report in this case should be
   correct procedure to handle the problem. (Attaching a patch to it
   that fixes it in the local version is perfect of course!)

  I am sure we can agree on this for other modules
  (dune-[common,istl]), too. Adhering to this policy would have saved
  you gays a lot of anger.

2. On the other hand I consider simply reverting patches  rude,
  too. Similarly to Christian this usually angers me considering the
  effort these patches usually pose. BTW: Did they break anything?
  Maybe next time (once the anger about 1. settles) we can have a
  discussion first.

Peaceful greeting from Heidelberg,

Markus
