That was the intention!  Thanks!

I'll merge these then; a quick review of your comments shows
that you're correct.  Someone new  won't know the
difference between 'subject' and 'object'.  I'll get that
tonight.

My only question is about the comments on the portacl policy,
but I'm sure that will come to light once you've sent in either
a patch or comments.  I don't suggest patch because I'll be working
on this tonight.  :)

Yea, the whitespace will be 'clean' on my commit.  A lot of it
looks downright horrible and misaligned.  I was more concerned
with 'information' and 'correctness' than anything else.
