Oooh I forgot another thing, the reason I did this is because I was trying to 
maintain the behavior while converting, and then change the behavior in 
subsequent patches.  I'm doing this specifically because we may have performance 
regressions, and I didn't want a bisect to show up at "Giant patch that changes 
all the things".  I want it to show up at the patch that actually changed the 
behavior, so we have a better idea of where to look.  So this intermediate step 
is a bit wonky for sure, but the end result at the end of the series is less 
wonky.  But I'm still going to update that comment.  Thanks,

Josef
