Oh, I apologise — I’m still using the TL2015 version of LuaTeX and hadn’t 
caught this news. The \Uhextensible primitive is exactly what I was thinking of 
(and the other new maths primitives look good as well — thanks!).

Whether \Uvextensible is really necessary is an open question — I’d say that 
it’d be "good to have” but doesn’t solve as much of a need as the h version.

Looking forward to it, thanks again.

Cheers,
