Queued, thanks; patches 24-26 for 5.16 and the rest for 5.17.

Just one nit: please tune the language to have a little fewer idiomatic 
phrases, as that can be a bit taxing on non-native speakers.  I for one 
enjoy learning a few new words, and it even adds some "personality" to 
the remote interactions, but it probably distracts people that aren't 
too preficient in English.
