Thanks, Elijah, for reading through the series. I wasn't necessarily expecting anyone to read the patches carefully, especially the `sed`-specific changes[*] since it's such an out-of-the-way part of the project, but it's nice to know that the time I put into organizing the series and writing the commit messages wasn't wasted.
[*] With the comments stripped out, the entire chainlint.sed script does quite a good job of emulating gobs of line-noise burped up by an old dial-up modem, so it's no surprise your eyes glazed over.
