I didn't quite discuss such specific requirements or hardware implementations,
but I agree that's a valid concern.  Not that I currently have access to such
hardware; any further inputs/data will be appreciated.

Thanks.  Either way works for me.  No urgency from my side.  I'd say - let us
leave this up to the community/other reviewers.  (IIUC, Palmer was recovering
from a certain flu and might need more time than usual to get back here.)
