Hi Andrew,

Wondering if we're good to look at this going to mm-unstable? As this has
had time to settle, and received R-b tags from Liam and Vlasta.

It'd be good to get it in, as it's kind of inviting merge conflicts
otherwise and be good to get some certainty as to ordering for instance
vs. Liam's upcoming MAP_FIXED series.

Also I have some further work I'd like to build on this :>)

Thanks, Lorenzo
