You missed the whole point, re-read the whole thread.
I didn't miss the whole point. The point is that you don't want to do anything to fix the situation you're in. You would rather complain about it here.
I enjoy only using Bitcoin-qt, this way my coins are safe and I help the network because other implementations aren't even considering this issue. People create features and submit them to Bitcoin mainstream client, where main developers actually get "free lunch" and only have to merge those. What you don't understand from that? They have a long record of not accepting even minor changes and leaving them rot on Github. This puts off people wanting to help or develop new features more every day.
As you probably understand main developers consolidate their position by doing this, assuring no one has any significant contribution towards the reference client, so we depend on them for whatever minor feature we need or want.
No, you do not have to depend on the main developers for any new feature. It's Free (as in freedom) software, after all. You can have a Bitcoin-qt client with those features if you would just put some effort into it.
