Ok. I was not aware of the level of importance to do it like this. Thanks a
lot for clarifying.
We should fix this, at least for the easy cases where we can do it without
adding a lot of extra fuzz.
I'll add a note in the TODO to be fixed before the next release (that is, not
in the upcoming 7.10.4). I'm in a mere bugfixing mode now, and I consider
that a "misfeature" and not a bug ;-)
