Leaving the changes related to the above two points, I have combined
all the changes and fixed the things as per my review in the attached
patch. Alexander, see if you can verify once the combined patch. I
am planning to commit the attached by tomorrow and then we can deal
with the remaining two. However, in the meantime, if Andres shared
his views on the above two points, then we can include the changes
corresponding to them as well.
