Sorry! I just hate the duplicate communication channel overhead and
confusion.

Thanks for the review! Also, I'm sorry for letting this slide for so long...

Fixed!

Right, fixed!

IIRC the latter was the case, and I though "hey, why not add this since
it actually was useful?". :)

I agree (and it's verified by commit ce0cef9 enabling something that
would make that code incorrect) and do not think the "compromise" you
propose is needed either, since it will be tested later any way. I
simply reverted commit 1f2cdd8.

Cheers!
