I have some comments on 12/17 that I'll put there.

I think it would be best to start by submitting 1-11 for inclusion so we
can get minor cleanups/refactoring out of the way. I've only skimmed
those patches, but they seem to be obviously correct, although the diff
move detection (and with -w) doesn't help much with them.

This next bit sounds petty, but I honestly don't mean it that way :)

One minor thing I want to note is 04/17. The change itself I 100% agree
on (in-tree docs are bad places for TODO lists), but the commit message
*still* says that a "verify" is just as slow as "write", even though I
noted a ~40% difference in [1].

Do I care about that tiny isolated thing? Nope. But I *do* think it's
indicative of a general thing that could be improved in these RFC
iterations that I found a bit frustrating in reading through
it. I.e. you're getting some of the "C[comments]", but then there's
re-rolled patches that don't address those things.

What we say in the commit message for 4/17 obviously doesn't matter much
at all. But there's other outstanding feedback on the last iteration
that from reading this one still mostly/entirely applies.

So I'll just leave this reply at "I have a lot of comments", but that
they're still sitting there.
