This is why I didn't liked that option, as that option only makes sense,
when doing it is plain wrong.
If somebody fixed a bug, which broke a test, but the change is intentional
or unaviodable then fixing the test is the right thing to do, and doesn't
really requires any rfc to support.
If somebody changed something, which broke some test unintentionally or
without proper justification then updating the test to accomodate the new
behavior without ringing the alarm bell is a bad thing to do imo.
But of course they are only options, so I guess people/RMs won't really use
it to shot themselfs to the leg.
