So the problem with this whole patch series from the very beginning
was that it was very specialized, and COMPLETELY OVER-ENGINEERED.

It got simpler at one point. And then you started adding these
features that have absolutely no reason for them. Again.

It's frustrating. And it's not making it more likely to be ever merged.
