I'm pretty sure you asked for magic the last time sent this patch.
Anyway, I can probably talk a little bit without disclosing the secretz.

Primarily the goal is to be able to easily queue up the work. Packing
more into the eb struct gives a nice compact /thing/ which I can put
into a list for later execution.

Now, the deferred execution has it's own pitfalls, and I'd prefer not to
get too far into that since I think these cleanups are decent on their
own.
