I got slightly confused between version as I was travelling - I saw 2
v10s so hopefully I have not missed anything. While "leak" is probably
not the right word to use here, I think the warning is a reasonable
compromise.

I have one minor wording nit in patch 1/3, but don't bother resubmitting
unless someone else asks for meaningful changes.
Thanks,
Conor.
