this smells like a generic enough thing to go into lib, doesn't it ?

Maybe, but the struct prepend_buffer also needs to be moved into lib.
Is it necessary? Is there any other user of struct prepend_buffer?


Don't have a specific use case right now, but it smells like a pretty
generic string function. Is already having more than one user a hard
requirement for putting something into lib ?
