No, you didn't miss anything from me on this.  Sorry, I'm right out
of it at the moment, hoping for time to address my inbox next week.

I watched the ball bounce back and forth between Oleg and Konstantin

If this patch is fine for Oleg, below, then it's fine for me.
Certainly I'll report if I see the message now that this patch is in.
