Okay, I see where you're going with this one.  It does not seem like
this is going to cost much in long-term maintenance while catching
unfortunate issues, so +1 from me.

The patch does not apply on HEAD due to the dependency with the other
things you are proposing, and I would have hardcoded failures to check
that the reports are correct, but that looks neat on read.
