You are right, I forgot: things were originally like I described, but
were later changed to fix bug#18958.

Thanks.

However, it looks like your suggested patch reverts back to what we
had before we fixed bug 18958, doesn't it?  If so, we will have to
look for some other solution, because we don't want to reintroduce
that bug.  See http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=18958#5
for the details.
