I support this change, it's a great next step on the design work I put into
https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/**r/#/c/17605/<https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/17605/>
and
seems to be very clever in the way it handles multiple messages.

That said, it's a pretty big change to an area of code that Timo (Krinkle)
has been working on a lot, and he's just left on vacation for a week, so I
am hesitant to merge it without some more scrutiny.

So, if you feel up to scrutinizing, please do.
