Sorry for the delayed response.  I'm not sure this is a good idea, at
least not without seeing a patch doing it.  While a lot of this data is
fairly opaque, the structs that say field X is value Y is helpful at
times when debugging the odd problem.  And there's always the
programming sequence issues as well.  So, I guess I'd have to see a
patch where moving in this direction really does make life easier /
cleaner to be convinced it's a good idea.  Thanks!
