   indeed.    
      
   I guess in general this depends on the patch and the kind of recommendation   
   (eg "must use!" vs "should give a try"...)   
      
   (TBH currently I'm a bit sceptical that such a patch would also be too   
    enthusiastic. That said, please do provide a bug with patch or an MR and   
    we can then discuss it on its actual merrit. An MR would actually be   
    preferred by me over a bug, but whatever works.   
    Also I'm really also not convinced yet that we/dev-ref should recommend dgit   
    for everyone and everthing right now. I do think it definitly should be   
    mentioned and  then maybe/probably become recommended later.
