Just so that you know, I've seen these and did some initial review. They
are mostly okay, but I think we'll need some preparation work. I mean,
having functions talking to the CH socket in ch_process.c seems odd.

Alternatively, I can merge these (with very little changes - formatting
mostly) and then post cleanup patches that move things around. What do
you prefer?

I am fine if you make small adjustment and put any larger changes on top. Hopefully, doing so can save us some back and forth and I will take a look at the end result to get a better feeling for how to structure things in the first place for next time.

Thanks for taking care :)
