Hi Peter,

No objection here, although I'll be posting new version of the in-place
conversion support later this week (~Wed-ish) and was planning to an
updated version of this series roughly the same time so which ever way
is best for you.

If you do post one though there's also the missing 'return false' and
dropping the seal=off enforcement that Daniel noticed before we started
talking about introspection fun.

Thanks!
