Sounds reasonable to me. Doing this in a clean way would require more
restructuring in the code. So far this change started a chain of changes
where each change tried to solve one issue and caused a more severe one.
Though it would not only be 5b8e6f85 to be reverted but also 78568448 that
tried to fix up problems that 5b8e6f85 caused.
