Won't there normally be a number of changes that *cannot* be covered by
such a parameter, without a whole lot more work in the patch?
Slightly OT, but just so it's on the record.
I'm of the opinion that whatever packaging system eventually makes it's

That way I can just unload network_addr_types and I no longer have to
