Yep, that's the goal.  It just so happens it makes future stuff easier
too.

I expect there will be a lot of discussion about the patches and a lot
of churn on my end responding to comments.  So I'm anticipating a fairly
lengthy process of getting all of us to a place where we're comfortable.
I certainly won't expect to be told I can check them in three days after
I submit them.  :)
