Well, if it works, OK with me. You are certainly the authority in this area 
now, so feel free to submit it. I'll be mostly away during the next 2 weeks 
for a bit of snowboarding, so better submit the patches directly til then. 
No immediate release is pending, so slight breakages (if any) are 
acceptable to me.
