Thank you; I appreciate your close review :-).

Thanks again. I discarded a fair amount of them, which I hope you don't
mind. I think a few of them could be reasonably dealt with outside of
this series. Mostly because they have implications on other parts of the
codebase. So I'd like to deal with them all at once, but without adding
to the scope of this series.

I did especially like your final suggestion about the new test in t5325,
so I sent a replacement patch that takes that suggestion (as well as the
typofix that you pointed out).

Unless you have any objections, I think that this is ready to get picked
up.
