This patch as a one-off thing may not be too bad, as it already had
exposure to the list (and there probably are more people scanning it
than it would have been if you silently made a pull request on
GitHub, because they saw messages from me in this thread).

BUT.

If I make it a habit to pull git-gui stuff from random people who
are not committed to and/or feel experienced enough for working on
git-gui, the result would be even worse than taking patches on
git-gui directly from the list.  At least a patch on the list I can
see how others react (or not react).  On the other hand, I do not
know how to interpret lack of comments from others on GitHub pull
request---perhaps nobody thought it was a good change, perhaps
nobody is paying attention to it, or what other possibilities there
are.

So,... quite honestly, I'd rather not.
