OK, I think 1&2/4 from this series can progress before that as it is an end-user visible improvement. While looking at it, I also found a variable that recent "timestamp_t" series didn't notice and update, so perhaps 1&2/4 needs to be rebased on a fix for that anyway ;-)

Thanks.  Will hold 3&4/4 for now.
