Given the need for this to get in (as it does fix actual problems) and the absence of comments on v3, I'm adding this to the ntb-next branch. If there is anyone that has anything more to say on this, please do so immediately. Otherwise, I think this probably needs to be moved to the ntb branch and go into 5.1-rc1.
Thoughts?
