I had a look at this, it all looks very straightforward apart from get
where we need to either do a dance to set up a supply mapping or
restructure to expose the core get operation internally without map
lookups (the latter I think) and that doesn't seem terribly invasive.
I may actually try coding it up next time I'm sitting in front of an
appropriate test system.
