It would be nice to pick this one up, even if it is similar to the
cursor one -- some methods shown here are not in the other example.

Any reviews Reviewed-bys/Tested-bys, anyone? (I can clean a few nits on

By the way, similarly to the other one, your email did not reach my
inbox for some reason.

Thanks!
