Thanks.

Yes, done.

Not sure I'll find time to do so, but perhaps there'll be a good
surprise. There's still the part "if we implement this, the profiling
script should probably be adapted to wait for another process." to do
and I didn't look at this yet.

I can't do that easily, because I need d07288f "Abstract user
notification in a dedicated command" from that branch. I'll however
rebase on the latest version of the branch before asking for merge.

Are you sure? Man sh reads:

Special Parameters

   @ Expands to the positional parameters, starting from
     one.  When the expansion occurs within double-quotes, each posi-
     tional parameter expands as a separate argument.  If there are no
     positional parameters, the expansion of @ generates zero
     arguments, even when @ is double-quoted.  What this basically
     means, for example, is if $1 is ``abc'' and $2 is ``def ghi'',
     then "$@" expands to the two arguments: "abc" "def ghi"


Cheers
