Awesome.

I agree.  Please check this in.  Thanks for merging this.

I talked to you on irc, and you said this has been tested quite a bit
and bugs fixed in it (including bugs existing in our old
implementation).  Info like this is good to put in a message like
this.  It makes it much simpler to just say "yes", since we can read
immediately about the depth of the testing.

I love seeing things like this.
