+1.

David's per-attack-vector stuff will simplify the user side of this
considerably so I'm trying real-hard to find the point for a new option.

IOW, the reason I requested this cleanup is to have proper sync between the
different mitigations all using VERW behind the scenes. But there's no need to
change the user interface, is it?

Thx.
