Hello all,
this is a resend because of a SourceForge.net mailing list
outage when it was originally (re)sent (I received an error
message for that in email yesterday, March 4, 09:21 CET).

sounds good (as double-check, the enum about what kind it is, is checked).

My intention was to make the code neat and tidy for the release, I read
in your answer fear of what shall be far from me: destabilization :-( ...

I have committed and reviewed one patch just before the weekend's end (in
local time), I sent it to Francesco and the list, sourceforge.net lost it
(I configured my mailing list subscription to send my posts back to me
and didn't get it that time, I just suspected it might be delayed,
I wouldn't have put much faith in a resend). I'll resend it to you,
Francesco and the list right away.

Yes, that's also my opinion, I hope I hadn't promised to review more than
one patch, I'm sorry that the one review email didn't reach you.
