LGTM. As I see, you have already submitted several patches to
Emacs. Have you signed already the FSF copyright papers? Otherwise, I
fear your contributions would exceed the max tiny patch limit.

In case you haven't signed yet, would you like to do that? It would
enable you to submit as many patches to Emacs as you like :-)

Best regards, Michael.
