I cannot do so "when queuing" anymore, but let me see if it is still outside 'next' and then run "rebase -i" on it. This is a bit different from what I would have written (I would have passed the original string to underlying subprocess for it to sanity check the value to its own liking, after we checked if it makes sense when interpreted as magnitude, so that the underlying subprocess, if it has stricter limit than we know of, can complain with the string the end-user gave it, not the result of us turning into a large integer string. But that is minor. Thanks, both.
