That's fair IMO. These kinds of patches put a much larger burden on
the reviewer to make sure they make sense. Thus, I had this in a
backlog to review, and haven't gotten around to it.

If Dmitry can prove out some proper testing, maybe the status can
change [1]. Or maybe I'll feel charitable and look/test them more
closely.

status, so it still might be lost to /dev/null without a RESEND.
