Please only use two semicolons here, with indentation. IMO the "triple
semicolons" are for "meta-commentary" about the module, not for code

Other than that looks good. As a side note, I typically don't append to
modules since the patch context quickly becomes outdated (like now), but
that's another issue entirely :-)
