Sorry, I haven't had time to look at this in more detail yet. But, let's 
take a step back first. Can you or Matthias explain in more detail why 
this fix is necessary? What are the use cases and motivation? The bug 
report doesn't go into any detail about that and there isn't anything 
in the initial RFR email that explains why this change is useful or 
necessary. As a general guideline or advice, RFEs should include this 
type of information so that Reviewers understand more of the context and 
motivation behind the change.

Thanks,
Sean
