The tri-state suggestion is an increment over this patch, which is getting a bit unwieldy. I'm just asking to get this cleared, then we can decide if/when to apply that increment. I don't think we should do two-state then tri-state in 1.8.1 / 1.8.2. We should skip tri-state altogether in 1.8.x (my +1), or it should go into 1.8.1 on top of this. Cheers, -g
