This patch doesn't really make sense to me...

What is your actual goal here?

This should be a separate patch.

I don't get it.

Does this patch have no functional impact? If so, say so, and justify both
why it should have no functional impact and why the refactoring is
desirable? The change looks like it *should* have functional impact...

Also, you did see the recent churn on VSELECT? I'm planning to implement
the new plan I outlined in my commit log. It would be great for you to
review those patches and the plan I outlined and comment on it (I asked for
comments).
