Why? If this change is a good one, I think it should be on by default.
Well, as you noticed the patch is kind of large.  I think the parts
of the patch which rewrite the code, refactoring, making more clear, robust, etc, of course should be _in_.
The cosmetic parts applying some fontification, for instance, showing
doc strings with doc font, could be optional.  Some people may don't
like them.  In my case i prefer how *Help* buffer looks now an i would be
dissapointed if after one 'git pull', i found that *Help* buffer looks
very different.  But it's just my opinion :-)
