Well, I don't think so... I don't like it if there is a possibility doing it with an initializer, but in other cases it may increase readability, too...
There was a discussion about SET_MODULE_OWNER here on the list, once. You can find it here:

At the end Rusty made a small patch that never made it into the mainline tree (even if I think it should have...) His mail with the patch can be found at:

(I like the analogy to a mainframe ;-)
