I'll think about this some more, but if we can make a change that
simplifies things and makes them more spec-compliant, and also happens
to make Thunderbolt work, that sounds better than fixing Thunderbolt
while leaving the wart there.

If we only fix Thunderbolt, it just feels like we're adding to an
ever-growing "deferred maintenance" list.
