I appreciate it and will re-read them more carefully, in the morning. For now, can we leave these patches as-is and then add additional tests on top, please? I'm afraid that adding them now will force me to rewrite current descriptions, as the result won't be minimal anymore, and I feel uneasy about writing commit messages for these permuted tests anyway. Thanks, -- Sergey
