NIT:
Generally RFC tag is meant to be used for the patches which are probably 
not ready for merging, and is mostly intended for having a discussion 
around your changes. Since this is now reviewed by multiple people and 
have gone through multiple versions already, if you feel this can be 
merged, you can remove RFC tags in next version, if you are planning to 
send it.
