I feel bad that you have to deal with sloppy code left by others, but these are the rules of the game. I suggest that you do all cleanups first as separate patches, and then the user-visible changes. The only exception is then your user visible changes replace the old code. I could do some cleanups myself, but I think it would be easier for you to do it at once rather than merge my patches. Or maybe we should ask the existing maintainers to prepare a clean playground for new contributors? Michael?
