I referred to just the one commit, above.  It is functionally incomplete.

As PCP maintainers we expect a certain level of completeness, and this
commit needs a little more work as discussed back then.

AIUI from your earlier comments, there is not alot left to be done.  The
fixup of that overlooked QA fallout remains for the other daemons, using
one of those suggested approaches.  Once that's completed, it looks like
this commit will be good to go.

cheers.
