Rightio - yeah, it'd just be nice to cleanup soonish & cleanup the large
combination of test cases once the implementation can be reduced in
complexity by having more orthogonality around parameter and result types,
etc. (once they're orthogonal in the implementation there's no need to test
every combination, etc)

Sounds good.

Otherwise this looks good to commit whenever you're ready - we can iterate
on the rest post commit.
