Sebastian, thanks for your suggestion, but I'm having trouble understanding
how your solution works, and I don't know what you mean by "If you just swap
the sequence of the buffer evaluation". I only glanced at your suggestion and
will review it later (hopefully).
If you can point me to more documentation about what's going on in
your solution,
or perhaps enlighten me a bit more, I would appreciate it!
Thanks,
