Hi Tony,

Thank you for the review first of all!

Besides this serie of patches, we are working on some follow-on patches.
If you need, we can send you an RFC, so that you can adjust code
according to it.

About the RFC you mentioned, it does look appealing even for us. But
still some in-house discussions are going on in order to make sure there
would be no risk for us. We will let you know as soon as we reach a
consensus.

Best
