Thanks for the pointer!

I made a version that uses damageReportDamage instead. I'm not quite
sure how this affects anything (or how it changes the operation),
though, because wouldn't the region be empty to begin with..

Unfortunately this change also requires an addition to the damage
interface (DamageInitialDamage), because the
information is not available otherwise.
