Thanks for clarifying! Rob: I hope it's OK that I've gone ahead and
sent out v4 leaving this alone. I knew you were interested in getting
the other bindings patch out sooner rather than later and I was hoping
to get both series out together so I could context switch to a few
other things early this week. Apologies if this was moving too
fast...
