As technical stand, I agree with this approach. And my poor brain can't
consider other than technical thing, it is purely my problem though. So
I'll try to create the patch based on first version, and I'll apply it

And could you please stop talking about other than technical issues? My
poor brain is already overflowed.

I'm a fool?  Yes, I agree.

Thanks.
