Indeed.  I'm taking note.  But all these are minutiae that are less pressing 
than more high-level issues that might change the submission significantly, so 
I'll wait for the appropriate moment to actually do the changes if there are 
still applicable then.

Then you should definitely read my answer to Alan.
 
> Finally, would it be possible to have tests for this feature?

Of course.  But again, this is not the most pressing issue right now.

Regards.
