I pushed this series to my review and testing queue to allow bots play with.

But.
Please, add commit messages to patches 4 and 5 (I can't take w/o them).
Collect Doug's tag that proves he is okay with the change (I remember
he answered something to the old thread, though I don't remember the
details except annoying footer which should not be up in open source
mailing lists).

So, while bots are playing with the code I'm waiting for v2 of this
with above addressed.
Thanks!
