There is nothing particularly wrong with the patch. Perhaps you could
leave the tabs in place instead of indenting with spaces in the code
blocks. It would result in a smaller diff. But other than that, it's
fine.

I'm sure Peter is capable of editing a file with a .rst extension, and
we can clean up any hickups afterwards if getting the formatting right
is insurmountable.
