Does anyone have any comments on this? I cannot see any specific
post-1.5 changes to the code to explicitly make this behavior change.
I think this must have come about as part of the work gstein did
pre-1.6 to use streams more and improve some of the codebase. This
must have come about as a side effect of running the code through a
different path. At least that is the best I can think of.
I do not think the current code is correct and we ought to revert to
the previous behavior of updating the keywords on commit.
