Hi Katu,

Andrew Bradford (on CC) was the last person to make significant changes to
that module. I believe it's not very widely used - none of the recipes we
commonly deal with make use of it and thus few of us have enough experience
with it to give good advice. If Andrew doesn't have any ideas, the code
shouldn't be too hard to follow and we will accept patches (particularly if
they are accompanied with a good explanation of why the change is needed in
the commit message).

Cheers,
Paul
