Yeah, I know.  That patch touches enough places that it's sure to
break every few days during a commitfest.  I'm not real excited about
maintaining it reactively.  The flip side of the coin is that pushing
it will doubtless break a lot of other uncommitted patches.  So I'm
not sure how to proceed.

Maybe the plan could be to push it at the end of the commitfest?  But
what I'd really like at the moment is buy-in or rejection of the whole
concept, so I know whether it's worth spending more time on.
