I think [1, 2] provide a good update of the alternatives considered. I.e., that concatting the packs together is easy but likely produces poor results, but reachability traversals are hard if you want to stop early.

I'll work on both and see which ends up cleaner and send that to the list, probably this next week.

Just double checking that you aren't expecting a re-roll of this (and if you are, that's fine, too). Peff reviewed v3 in depth and left a few comments, the result of which is a replacement for the final patch [3].

FWIW, he said that v3 (with the replacement for 10/10) looked good.
