Finding these issues just reinforces how fragile this 300-line function
has become. We really need to refactor it to make the state flow easier
to reason about. I'm currently putting together a series to do just that
(introducing a proper fault state object), so stay tuned for an RFC on
that front.
If you have such patches, please post them sooner rather than later,
even if the rework is incomplete. I'd be happy take small patches that
start add infrastructure early and work out the full refactoring over
time.
I'll try to have something for you by tomorrow in that case.
