which happened a grand total of 5 times (all in the same day - also in
sequence, meaning they might as well be one, from the point of view of
diffing) since the creation of the win32k-gdi-dx branch (33435)

do four reverts over the span of a week (33764, 33782, 33881, 33885)
count as a "spree"?

surely you mean "roughly four weeks"? (33435 to 33881 - or should we set
the end of the "pax greatlordiana" at harmless 33598? unrelated 33632?
third-party patch 33763? MSVCRT-related commits starting from 33764?
where exactly did he get uppity and forget his proper place?)

pretty harsh assessment of two reverts about 3 hours apart (33882 and 33886)

Is there a story here apart from what the repository can tell? Is it
just a matter of perspective? bad timing? Help me here, because it
really, really seems to me you are alienating away a developer with
irreplaceable experience on the grounds of a bad day you had on June,
7th (with a hint of handicap discrimination, for extra flavor)

Apologies for turning the drama up to eleven, but it seems to me Magnus
is getting a pretty raw deal for all he's done for us
