Not really arguing for or against, but just to understand the reasoning before
starting hacking. Why do we feel that a restart (intended for safety here) in
this case is a burden on a use-once process? Is it from a usability or
technical point of view? Just want to make sure we are on the same page before
digging in to not hack on this patch in a direction which isn’t what is
requested.
