Hi, Thanks for your patches. I would like to understand what testing has been performed on these patches. With the possible exception of patch 3/4, I feel that unless they are motivated as bug fixes, these changes are too complex to accept without testing. Although the opinions of the relevant maintainers may differ. And as for 3/4, I lean towards falling into the policy regarding clean-ups not being generally accepted unless it is part of other work.
