I'm not putting any roadblocks as this is not the area I maintain. I'm
just saying that this whole scheme looks fragile to me.
I.e., I'm just playing the devil's advocate and pointing out the issues
this scheme could have. It might not but it could - we can't know of all
the possible future use cases.
So this is all your call as far as I'm concerned. Hans was fine either
way.
I'll take the next revision through tip as we agreed with Hans and after
the other, minor issues I've pointed out have been taken care of.
