 > I wonder whether it wouldn't make sense to have the GETINFO values
 constructed from the table; I'd say "not necessarily", but if not, we
 should add a comment to the table saying that whenever we add a new value,
 we need to make certain to add it to GETINFO signal/names.  (Otherwise
 we'll forget to add new values to signal/names)

 Yes, the GETINFO value should be constructed from the table.  (Otherwise,
 there's no reason to remodel the rest of the code to be table-driven.)
