I was encountering this *exact* problem while attempting to make this change. I'll look into this,
as it seems like a respec bug that we'll need to work around.

I recall replying to this thread on the 18th, but for some ridiculous reason the webmail client
decided to only send it to Ms2ger (I'm not sure about this bit, but I find it very likely) - and not
leave it in my sent box either - so I don't have the original mail.. but the points were:

1) Proposed changes look good.
2) I'm on it.

(2) doesn't matter anymore it seems, thanks a lot for looking into this.
