Hi Julien

LGTM - only one trivial comment inline.
If nothing else comes up I can change that whilst applying.
I won't be applying today however given this is a new series and has only been
on the list since Friday.

Add trailing commas.  In theory we might expand this structure
in the future.   The only time we don't add trailing commas is
for 'null' terminator type entries where we know anything added
must come before them.

Good. I always like some nice art :)
+ your implementation takes the same approach I would have done.
