Yeah. Unless Al wants to pick this whole series up.

See my comments about the individual patches - some of them change
code flow, others do. And I think changing code flow as part of
cleanup is ok, but it at the very least needs to be mentioned (and it
might be good to do the "move code that is idempotent inside the
retry" as a separate patch from documentation purposes)
