I was chatting with John as soon as Al pointed out the problem and suggested we look at something like this. I am glad you were able to crank it out so readily. Thank you! Barring a more elegant solution, I think just holding nameidata down until the watches are added is the way to go. We will test this and then merge it into the next patch.
