I'm fine with that approach, but I'd like to ask that we proceed
expeditiously, because I have another patch that I want to commit that
touches this area. I can commit to helping with whatever we decide to
do here, but I don't want to keep that patch on ice while we figure it
out and then have it miss the release.
