Good question ;-). There were a couple of outstanding issues pointed out
by SZEDER Gábor that I addressed on top of what's already there.

I tied up what I think are all of the remaining loose ends and put
everything together in a single unified (if a little long) patch series.

This should be ready to go, but I'd love to hear from Jonathan Tan and
SZEDER before declaring victory here.

Thanks,
Taylor
