Sure, I'll prepare that.

As much as I'd love to see markers as soon as possible I have to agree.

I really hate how the first post of a handfull easy patches touching
almost no core code has turned into this gigantic series.

Matthew, any chance you could resurrect a trivial, no-optimizations
marker variant that has so little impact it could go into 2.6.24?

I'd really love to have the infrastructure there so we can add optimizations
in parallel with actually adding the users to the tree.

I think I'll duck these one more time.  There was a bit of followup
and for now I'd prefer to concentrate on obviously-safe stuff and
stabilisation of the current 2.6.24 queue.
