I thought about that, but then when I went to implement I found it
just as easy to have the user specify it. With the later I get to
re-use the pieces of the read-only memory.
Yes, question is, will the user get the rules where you need to stick an
P_E_O_L() (between any contiguous block, yes?).
I guess we can get away with just documenting it. The list of users is
unlikely to grow.
