I think that's a useful idea. Neil, Joseph, what do you think?

I don't feel strongly either way, but indeed this would get rid of some
of the problems Stephan noticed.
In the next one or two days I'll try to cook up a patch for (most of)
Stephan's comments. Unless there are strong (and well-argued) objections
to such a change, I think I'll happily accept a patch making the two
changes you suggest above!
