Sorry, but it's impossible to believe that there's _nothing_ that can be
contributed back.
(And again the comments about the superiority to Emacs on the website

Very few people here have access to Macs, so we can't test whatever is
visible there. It is better that merge requests originate from people

We prefer to hear about bugs in emacs-22.1, EMACS_22_BASE, and CVS HEAD,
so it is better to reproduces the bugs on one of those versions using
emacs -Q, and then report it here.
