Hi,
Thanks a lot for the patch.  You're right that it hasn't had enough
testing or review, but it was at the stage where only further usage
would've helped, and it has.  We've caught most of the problems and will
be releasing 1.4.1 mainly just to fix up input.  I haven't had much time
recently to look at it, but will be working on it over the weekend and
also next week.

Thanks again for the patch.

Cheers,
Daniel
