Is there still a need for this issue?

Status: Active » Closed (outdated)

Came across this again while looking at old bugs for the Bug Smash Initiative. There hasn't been any consistent activity here since mid 2014 and it seems that this issue isn't needed anymore. I asked in #contribute and Gábor Hojtsy responded, also pointing out the lack of activity.

Therefore, closing as outdated. If this is incorrect reopen the issue, by setting the status to 'Active', and add a comment explaining what still needs to be done.

Thanks!
