I like this philosophy. :-)

I just have one comment for you to double-check. Otherwise, I also
encourage you to approve your patch.

The actual description of the function (if brief) has been removed. The new
comment explains the LEVEL argument, but the decl only contains types. A
casual reader (like myself) would have to go figure out to which argument this
refers.

I have to ask: Is this what you intended? It seems like a cut-n-paste
error?
