That does make for a simpler implementation at this point, however if any other such LSMs come along (as Casey seemed to think they would) the end result could end up being horrible spaghetti code of dependencies and interrelated configs.
But OTOH we went years with no such changes, so that's probably not a particularly practical concern unless someone can cite specific upcoming examples. So if noone objects I'll try that approach.
