That's a pretty ugly way of doing it.  How about this?

Ha!

That was my original thought but I also didn't much like changing all the callers.

I don't really like the proliferation of these small helper functions either but if everyone

is happy to do this I think it's a great idea.

(other variants on this theme might be to pass the flags to
