It's not the aesthetics I'm worried about, it's maintainability. I had the dubious pleasure of writing most of those special-case parts, and I'm already beginning to have difficulty remembering what use case does each one cater to, and how to make sure I don't break it by some change. How can we expect others to make changes in such a mess? > > What am I supposed to see?

I think Stefan suggested a way to achieve this without all this complexity. I hope it will be possible.
