The verbose description of the issues addressed from PATCH 0/2 should
go here is well so it makes it into the permanent git history.

That being said, I think for the sake of reviewing, you're going to
need to break this up into reviewable pieces, each having a verbose
description of the issues being solved.

There is also a mixture of fixes, enhancements, renames etc.  These
should be done as separate patches. 

I know that it's more work to break it up like this, but that's the
only way to make a large change like this reviewable by others.

Thanks,

Kevin
