Actually, not that much.  This file is 1k+ lines with plenty of tests
just like this one.  Do not get me wrong, doing this would be a big
plus, but given the extend of changes I would think it is a bit out of
the scope of what I want to achieve.

Do you mind if I postpone this refactoring?  i.e. I get it out of my
mind until next time I have to come back to this file, or want to spend
time just doing this.

Lancelot.
