It has been a while again Brian so I thought I'd touch base again and
hope to push some patches this week and get on making a release.  I
agreed your patch was better than #4, fixed #5, agreed to table #7 for
now, and made sure #8 does not allow the user to create the errors.  I
just wanted to make sure that you came around on #6 and #9 before I
push them.
