Thanks for your interest! :)

Right. I'd just like to make sure the approach I've taken (particularly
patch 1 in the set as it touches the lib) is acceptable before spending
time on testing and documentation etc. Indeed patches 1 and 2 changed
fundamentally between v1 and v2 after some chats on IRC. If the comments
now are favourable, I'll write the tests and documentation. (Though I
guess I have to admit the tests would've been beneficial to me already
now...)

BR,
Jani.
