Stefani, I'm sorry for bothering you with small things, but it is really
bead idea to combine the re-naming and the new utility in one patch.
These are really 2 separate steps: 1 - prepare things by re-naming, 2 -
add new utility.
Please, make it 2 separate patches, not one patch.
Also, it is very helpful when people add v2 v3 etc to the subject. This
is just another "friendly hacker's practice".
Thanks!
