This is an interesting proposal, but it is a radical departure from how
we've done things until now so I think it deserves higher billing than a
comment at the end of hundreds of lines of untrimmed quotes.

I think given the change it would be best to discuss this in a new
dedicated thread, independent from any particular new protocol
contribution which might be going on.
