I'm not reviewing a patch that implements this as "delete 250
lines of the old file and add 400 lines of new file" when
they're clearly very similar. Please split this up in a way
that makes the changes visible and reviewable (probably this
is one patch doing "rename file" and then one or more patches
making the code less 7xx specific and then a patch adding
the 8xx type).

thanks
