Comment (by arma):

 Ok, I looked at the code again, and asn is right. We currently do the
 opposite of what I thought we did, and based on the discussions above, I
 think we should change our behavior to do what I thought we did.

 Does this want a mini-proposal? How do we best proceed from here? Also, is
 this choice orthogonal to all the recent prop#259 work?
