Thanks for taking care of this issue!.

Thanks for the review. But I'm now not sure whether we push this to
mainline+stable now, and later replace with Lucas' approach, or whether that
approach would be also suitable and non-disruptive enough for stable?
Lucas' approach is for improvement and would be complex rather than
this. I don't think it would be appropriate for stable. IMO, it's better to push
this to mainline + stable now.

Thanks.
