Here is a new patch set.  I've included the latest revision of the patch to
fix get_db_subscription_count() from the other thread [0] as 0001 since I
expect that to be committed soon.  I've also moved the patch that moves the
"live_check" variable to "user_opts" to 0002 since I plan on committing
that sooner than later, too.  Otherwise, I've tried to address all feedback
provided thus far.
