I would like to consider that the last draft I did [*1*] based on
earlier suggestions by Derrick and Ævar would be a reasonable middle
ground.

I'll go mostly offline next week---I'd notice if the list came up
with a vastly different concensus when I come back, but hopefully
not ;-)

Well, I misspoke.  If the list reached a consensus while I was away,
then that would have been a happy outcome, whether it was close to,
or vastly different from, the one I suggested.

I hope that my reply to your attempt was clear that I found it to
be a good approach. I'm happy with it.

Since you posted the v3 of this patch series there's been on the order
of 30 E-Mails dowthread of v3 4/4, but your only replies have been to
Junio.

What phrasing (if any) we use for prose guidelines in the
CodingGuidelines doesn't cover the various outstanding questions. Mostly
point-by-point feedback from myself & Felipe.

Per my upthread [1] do you plan to address that feedback & re-roll, or
ignore it?
