I'm not getting any strong mandate to change the current behavior so I'm inclined to do nothing - my usual preference.

My position is that it should be changed because memory-mapped I/O is a bit unusual and casual TIFF-lib users won't be expecting it or its associated problems with large files. Though, of course, I have found a work-around for my own TIFF-lib usage.
