If the dual comparisons are the problem, what do you think of the code
in patch 8? The dual comparison is gone, and the code structure is
pretty close to what you propose here.

The assertion is there to help with reading the code more than to catch
errors. The assertions says that if s->update_rate is not set, then the
source is a monitor source, which might not be obvious to the reader
without the assertion. I can remove the assertion if you don't like it.
