Therefore I am asking if you have any issues with these existing two patches to sound your concerns before they are committed (avoid the next Drupal version to come with changes to these files). Also, if you have other issues against these files, which you think should be resolved sooner then later, it is the time to put them into the spotlight.
If user-friendliness is a desired goal, then maybe it's the opportunity to uncomment one of the suggestions in .htaccess, regarding the access to the site with/without the www prefix (preferably keeping the one WITH www). Having them both creates duplicates (any seo expert around here to explain the effect of that?), and by default it is not sharing session cookies (last time I checked at least), which leads to confusions ("hey! why am I thrown out of that site?!"). Probably many of the mentioned patches to this file, are in these lines. Savvy users will probably know how to change the values, if they really need to.
