I think its good to get this in, and not do it in the last minute, but
just to be clear on my part, I've reviewed earlier versions, but I
have not reviewed the latest code to the extent I would have liked
before it was committed, due to competing priorities on my end. That
said, its a good forcing function, so let me do my part to help shake
out any bugs that remain.
