Yes… What would be the non-ugly-hackish-sort-of-way?

Ew… =)
Yes, we probably shouldn’t be encouraging ugly-hackish-sort-of code. That being
said, there’s no beautiful-elegant-sort-of way of doing this kind of thing, so
here we are.

Well, maybe if we collectively build the non-ugly-hackish-sort-of solution,
that behaviour will change [for the better] as a side effect.
