Haven't I seen this discussion somewhere before?

I think I speak for some of the other developers when I say that I  
don't like to apply random patches that have a high likelihood of  
breaking other users' configurations. Please code and test a patch  
that can be selectively enabled. If you need help coding it up, ask on  
this list.

Since last November, we have another option for handling patches. You  
can fork my GitHub repository[*], write and test the patch in your  
local Git tree, and then push back to GitHub. Hopefully this will make  
it easier for other owners of these UPSes to test and report back that  
the patch for hardware model B doesn't break support for model A.
