I'm not sure if that stalled due to lack of time or some fundamental
problems.

ran out of time, then had a stroke...
Seems like finishing that would let us clean up such misuses?

yes it would

so since there is not better way of suppressing the issue atm are
you ok with taking this fix for now?

I vote no on sprinkling ugly tags around to silence some random
checkers warning. We already have too many of them. They are
meaningless and confusing to people reading the code.

This is not a fundamental problem, the solution is clear.


Fair enough.

David, did you post your work somewhere if someone would like to pick
it up and finish it?
