Right, interesting thought.  I think that for the time being we should
close this one as returned with feedback, since there's no point in
keeping it open in commitfest.  I encourage the author (and everyone
else) to look at the other patch and help there, which is going to
ultimately achieve the outcome desired with this patch.
