I am OK either way, so let's take these two, plus the "don't i18n the literals that must be given as option values" patch from Jiang, and discard the "let's delay the inevitable to buy some time" patch. I merged the last one locally to 'next' already but I haven't pushed the result out, so it is still possible to back out ;-)
