This review has taken longer than expected given I was also reviewing
how to mesh in the new API I had been working on longer than this
patch series, and also address the long standing issues with the
UMH I have cringed over. Last week and this weekend I did most of
the hard work to feel happy with a resolution, and will now be folding
this functionality into my series.

So -- please have a bit of patience, and I will be spinning out a new
series which incorporates the functionality you have requested, just
meshed more in line with the other requirements we have had for a
while.
