I would not try to guess the team intent :) As far as I'm concerned, I
did not look at it mostly for bandwidth reasons (and then memory loss
issues ;). If the low-level version is a better way to address this (imo
it's likely to be), then this patch would have been a good opportunity
to discuss it, rather than just seeing this patch without the
alternative.
I'll go dig these patches now... (and I would have preferred that this
is not pushed before we finish that conversation...)
