I was (and am) interested in feedback. I didn't make a commit request
because I felt that there could be some reservations on how useful the
patch could be.

All I can say is that I can assure co-operation from my side.

I sense that I had been a bit verbose and a bit too cautious. This seems
to have turned off any further interest. A lesson for me here.
