I see you merged down the v2 of this[1], not the v3[2], thanks!

I'm personally happier with the v2, but the v3 is just as useful for my purposes, and I understood that you/Ramsey had some flows/finger memory depending on the semantics of the existing "sparse" target.

If it was a mistake I'm happy to submit a version of the v3 on top (since it's in "next" already), or if it was intended I'm happy to leave it be. Just checking.
