Ok, that's what we'll do.

For directions, which can be controlled with ^ and _, it makes sense. For the other things, the effort would be better spent improving the IR directly. Side note Mats: ^_ were introduced for ties about six months ago, feature request by Werner I believe. It's halfway down the NEWS.
