Hmm, I've been looking at this but I can't really see a way of
supporting this without breaking previous schematics.

Has anyone got any suggestions about how to do this change without
breaking old schematics?

Otheriwse I'll just crop the patch to just fix the small niggles and
leave the direction problems alone.
