Sorry that I took so long to reroll a v4. The changes from v3 to v4 are 
mostly cleanup, so I'll send those as a single commit later, and they 
don't need to be rushed to master as nothing is broken in the version 
you merged.

I've had limited review of this topic that is very exciting (to me). I 
know that last commit is a bit daunting, but I'd love someone to take a 
look.

Just a reminder that we agreed to drop this series.
