+1. Initially, I thought the service types _were_ symbols, but I see now
that they're actually procedures. Thanks for pointing that out. I'll see
about implementing environment types similarly in my revised patch set,
since I think that's a change that we'd want to make before any other
environment types come into existence.

Regards,
Jakob
