As far as I'm concerned, if you and Ian are in agreement to make this additional change, and no one specifically objects by tomorrow morning, then it is just as acceptable as Ian's diff. It is also acceptable (as far as I'm concerned) to handle this refinement via a separate bug. Thus, if there are no objections, I will list this as one of the acceptable alternatives for implementing the decision.
