Sure, I will move that.

I think there are a few assumptions lingering in my implementation, but it should not be difficult to weed them out and use the code in a more generic manner. > We already have a massive number of patches pending for dev18, so I think > I'll issue dev18 now then open post-dev18 with your patches. Thanks. Should I re-post my series or make the changes you suggest above as incremental patches on top of my existing patches?
