I'd be more in favor of trying to get autoload cookies for all the functions
which could need it, hence accepting such one-by-one patches -- which have no
border effects of any sort.

For example, you accepted the autoload cookie on org-version, a couple of

But, OK, there is certainly not right or wrong position, so I respect yours.
