Hi Alex

Great.  Thant's fast work.

The bug gives me an overview of the problem, but I'd like some more
information.

The obvious question is when this will be contained in a stable release, and
how to patch in the meantime.
It would certainly work for us to include a monkey patch in our own
libraries, and then take it out when your fix has completed its release
cycle.

I am sure that there are people out there who are starting to manage their
own artifacts, and they may run into the problem. (Especially if their
software is somewhat proprietary, when they may want better security.)
