I mean that when I do a test install, I essentially hit RET RET RET RET,
and sometimes TAB ludo foo, and this change adds an additional TAB into
the mix; but nevermind, my muscle memory will get used to it.  :-)

Isn’t the grid constrained by the side of the outer box?  Perhaps we
should enlarge that outer box a bit?

Anyway, I think you can push, it’s already a great improvement IMO.
