Hi David, A big sigh about the lag between patch submission and a response. Apologies for that. That lag is not indicative of your submission's value. I appreciate your submissions very much. ^_^ There was a whitespace quirk, likely due to the MUA used to submit it, so I had to pass --ignore-whitespace to git-am for a clean application. That issue seems to specific to this submission and not subsequent ones, so I'll use git-send-email to submit a 'v2' to maintain a strict association between the mailing list and what ultimately lands in the repository. Style nit inlined below which will not hinder progress whatsoever...

(PS: I'm aware of numerous style issues around the codebase). Cheers, and thanks again for the submission
