And I really appreciate your desire to do this The Right Way. However, please don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good on this one. A simple bump to jumbo-6 or jumbo-7 would have benefited many people over the past year and a half. Doing such a bump now should be fast, and does not preclude making the deeper improvements later. Please consider a quick commit now. But either way, good luck with the harder work! Royce
