Hi Thomas,

The code looks reasonable overall, but I fear your timing is unfortunate
and we can't expect to complete the review before the merge window opens.
Things would have been much easier if you had posted preliminary versions
a few weeks earlier, but my feeling is that this should be treated
as v3.6 material.
