I was uncertain about this upon first posting a while back, but upon
reflection I like it.  I think that it will make it harder to get the
usable protocols wrong when we add new fields, because it forces the
developer to make a decision when adding the field to meta-flow.c.

When we've got the first patch sorted out (I assume that without patch
1, this patch will cause test failures) I'm happy to apply this one.

Thanks,

Ben.
