Apologies, but the approach I'm taking is very significantly different so it
would be problematic in terms of patch provenance to do this :(

I will make sure to credit you directly in the commit message so there is proper
attribution, this patch and follow up stuff has grown a lot (been working on it
all of yesterday afternoon/evening + this morning) and need to ensure the stable
stuff is backported etc.

Thanks for your contributions here, very much appreciated, and sorry to have
messed you about on this!

Cheers, Lorenzo
