And also for clarification: I definitely agree.  My point is that the
problem of whether we can do this easily and without breaking user-visible
semantics is the same regardless of which GOT scheme we use.  We'd be
dividing up the contents the same way for both schemes.  And we'd be
creating sections in the same way for both schemes.
