Since we are moving to fine grade caps wouldn't it be better if we just 
added caps for the actual instructions instead of having these meta 
caps. Maybe not for each individual instruction but for groups 
(flowctrl, derive, etc). Just a thought.

I looked at the patches and they look good to me.

Cheers Jakob.
