Sorry I didn't answer sooner, I was busy finishing everything before
my holidays :) I won't have time to implement what you proposed, and
more importantly I don't have a setup for rv32 to test quickly. I'll
let Palmer decide if we can keep the TODO so that someone can do that
later on top of this series.

Thanks anyway for your reviews!
