I'm worried about the number of other changes over the last few months
that are related to this so a simple revert might not get us to a good
place.

I'd like to see a patch proposal on what we should do. Time is short as
testing changes takes time and we're now a bit behind already :/.

So specific proposals welcome.

Cheers,

Richard
