As Nick mentioned off-list, my e-mail describing my patch to the list
may not have made clear that a new IR attribute was being added and
what the semantics of it was, so I think it it my fault that it
attracted less discussion at the time than it should have before being
committed.
In any case, I am glad we are debating the merits of this approach now.
