Thanks for your review Suzuki, much appreciated!

About your question, I'm not sure yet - in case the core changes would
take a while (like if community find them polemic, require many changes,
etc) I might split this series in 2 parts, the fixes part vs the
improvements per se. Either way, a V2 is going to happen for sure, and
in that moment, I'll let you know what I think it's best.

But either way, any choice you prefer is fine by me as well (like if you
want to merge it now or postpone to get merged in the future), this is
not an urgent fix I think =)
Cheers,


Guilherme
