Hi,

Hmm,
This will lead to these variables beeing append:able but non-overridable in 
image layer, as an(un?)intended consequence,
right ?

Br,

   please don't top post.  and i'll have to take a look at this to see
what the potential problem is here.  can anyone else see a potential
issue with this patch?

Yes, as David said, it eliminates the possibility of overriding
the variable.  IMO, all of these should be ?= which lets there
be a useful default, but can still be [completely] overridden
by the user.
