Thanks, hopefully CC'ing them now is OK (I just added them). If not,
I can repost.

I'm not sure. If it turns out the block size will be the same in most
cases, then we could add another property named cbo-block-size, which,
when present, would be parsed first and used to populate all CBO-related
block sizes. Then, these specific properties would only serve to override
that general size for their respective block sizes when they're present.
