I'm sorry about the delay, I ran into various life/software things, and found that this topic required a lot of continuous "sit down for a day and work on it" attention from me v.s. some other topics where I'd deal with interruption better. Then I was hoping that the merger of your bundle.c changes would come a bit earlier before the rc, but they pretty much coincided, and since the rc dropped I've been hesitant to send a very large topic to the list (c.f. e.g. [1]). Maybe I should just bite the bullet and submit it anyway, what do you think? 1. https://lore.kernel.org/git/nycvar.QRO.7.76.6.2204071407160.347@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/
