I've provided several use cases and test code, all of which suggest that = the=20 maybe_quit calls are unnecessary. You have given no use cases that sugges= t=20 otherwise. So I'm puzzled as to why you remain convinced that these calls= are=20 needed. All I'm asking for is a practical use case; it shouldn't be that = hard to=20 give one, if the calls are really important.
