I said "majority of usefulness" because it appears that the majority of
the time that people mention this it is in relation to tar.  But, I
certainly expected to be instructed on the fact that there are other
programs which could be impacted.

Cygwin lived without this feature for a number of years with only
infrequent complaints.  I just don't think the benefit outweighs the
impact.
