-----------------------------------------

> Did i understand your concern right?

I don't have specific concerns about this patch.  Sorry for any confusion in 
that regard.  I thought it worthwhile to discuss how this change relates to 
other changes that are contemplated.  It seems not inconsistent, provides some 
of the benefits, and is considerably simpler; in short, a good thing.
