This is prep work for some yet to be named stuff I'm trying out. I think it ended up standing well on its own, so I decided to submit it for consideration on it's own. Basically it just cleans up the special allocation of the pipe control, as I intend to do a bit in that area. Daniel, if you still want to wait for me to unleash the other patches, that's fine - but maybe you can give some feedback on these meanwhile. I've only done the most basic smoke tests on this.
