I think it makes sense from the fog of my memory of this issue.  But I'm
also going to note: I haven't gotten to this in a while, and I feel
guilty about that.  :(

I'm very overwhelmed right now.  If nobody picks this up where I left it
off I probably can, but I am probably blocked for the next couple of
months with urgent tasks... which is a shame for something that looked
so close to landing.  If anyone wants to get this to the last mile and
address Ludo's feedback they are welcome to in the meanwhile.
