  Indeed, that doesn't cover some corner cases of (c), but that's not a
big deal in practice I guess.

  My point still stands - this is extra hassle, done just for the sake
of the tool; I think the tool should not get in the way. Moreover, it's
not the default solution for your typical original author and therefore
you will still often find yourself in a situation where you have to deal
with a setup that's broken already.
