Well at least I think the printk change is a good one to implement and there wasn't much protest to it at least.
If you're looking for another change request I think dropping the trailing white space check would be good a idea because a lot of maintainers already handle that automatically and it is not really worth bothering the "leaf developers" with because that can be trivially automated.
Also I still think --file needs to go, or at least be replaced with --file-force and warning. See the recent unpleasant incident it caused again, e.g.
