Please do. Thanks!

I suggest to file as a separate bug for licensecheck (i.e. not reassign 
- not sure which you meant by "forward").  Reason is that we might have 
different opinion on its severity, and if considered lower severity in 
licensecheck I imagine you maybe deal with it directly in Config::Model.
