I understand your point. It may be difficult, or impossible, to define when a feature
is funded entirely by one subject; software does not live in isolation, and we risk
to overlook fundamental work in favour of more "flashy" new stuff.
The issue here is to give appropriate credit to everyone, and be fair in this context
is really tricky. That's why I would not mind leaving the advertising of a feature to
its funder.
Of course, this may not fit equally well everyone.
All the best.
