I would've liked to see a small description of what this does and also provide a bit more context in the other commit messages instead of the bulleted lists you have. They don't give the reader much of a sense of the context we're operating in and why we think that those changes are good.

Other than that the patch series looks fine to me. Thanks!
Patrick
