get around to it.
Thanks!

I'm going to run with this for a few days and if I don't see any problems I'll
commit it, then it'll be in 1.7 when I get around to doing some more stuff on
fdm.
Thanks

This looks great to me, I will give it further test, add the manual bits and
commit it later on today or tomorrow.
Thanks for your work!
