Being a maintainer is often a thankless, unpaid, never ending job. I will always give maintainers the benefit of the doubt, especially when they are being active, and not leaving gaps.

Regardless of how this contributer wants to be acknowledged for a drive by contribution, Im sure they will keep developing and build a name for themselves so that a single patch isn't a huge issue
