When it comes to thousand line functions which feel the need to be 
(heavily) commented in German, I have a very strong urge to 'nicht 
gefingerpoken'.

Unless you feel generous enough to debug further, I'll go with plan B 
and just poll for now rather than risk changing it. While not optimally 
pretty, the objective of the exercise is after all to produce more tests 
and fewer bugs!

(In due course I can commit a test for this bug too)
