As far as I can recall, this had quite a lot of discussion during v1
(or was it RFC?) but nobody seems to have been reacted to this
round.  Can anybody give it an eyeball (or two) and tell us that the
iteration now is in line with what was discussed during the review
of the previous round, so that we can mark it for 'next'?

Thanks.
