[Maxima] "If no one objects" insufficient?

This comment is not specifically about Andrej's change, but a comment on 
the notion that a change is OK "if no one objects" and it doesn't break 
the test suite.

What would be better in the case of changes (especially where the 
original use is unclear)
is a positive action -- a confirmation of correctness --.

That is, someone else has looked at the proposed change, and positively 
asserts that he (or she)
thinks this is a correct change.
