Yes, I think lazy loading is a good solution here, since there is no
extra context that needs to be known to load the decorations.

The add_again chunk code is for things that take a long time (like
finding the shortest abbreviation for some hashes). I'm not sure this
counts as "long", as it is just doing a hash lookup on the decoration.
On the other hand, I doubt the extra couple of bytes used hurts much.
