Weird, I did reformat the patch to the 80 char limit and I have dual
display in vim, meaning I have a visible line at 80 chars and 100 chars
whenever I edit a file. I'll go through it again, thanks!

Good point. Will do.

Will split into separate patch.

Nothing apart from the fact that they arent't currently valid. I can

Thanks!

Will do.

Ok, I'll remove the _LATEST.

Thanks for the review (and sorry again for missing your mails)!
