It's better to split to two patches for the different aims. Accumulating
patches to log history is preferable, as long as you have concrete wills
to improve codes, I believe.

I wonder why the assignment is done in this line. This function still
includes some codes to return errors. In this case, it's better to code
the assignment in last part of the function.

This is a public API. It's better not to touch application's objects in
invalid cases.
