To me the patch looks ok and done the right way. The ticket could have a better description though, like you do in #8445.

rebase and resend the patch. The new patch can be applied to the latest master branch. Thank SeanCollins very much ;)

Patch applied in hrev44064. The FEATURE_6 names in the define could probably be more descriptive so maybe that should be changed.
