Comment:

 arma's patch looks good to me.

 Since the patch literally moves a block of code around, I couldn't resist
 the urge to make it into a function. I pushed a commit that does this in
 my branch `feature19036`. If you feel that the refactor is not trivial,
 feel free to merge arma's patch and we can functionify later.

 Code:
