Sorry that it took some time but I only just got around to look at them. 
The one patch that I acked may be of higher priority and should probably

That patchset will have a significant impact on yours. You may be able to 
get rid of some of the switch statements. It would be great if we had some 
description as to where you are heading with the incremental changes to

consistent and easier to understand.
