I suspect that you will find detailed answers hard to come by, for the simple
reason that the author of the code (TC) and its maintainer for the last
donkey's years (SPL) are the ones with the real, detailed knowledge about
this end of the library. Your delvings have probably made you "the" expert.
I would suggest trying out both clean solutions for a while to see if there
are any unexpected side effects and then send in a patch. I also think that
detailed commentary of the code would be a good thing in this case; it does
seem quite subtle.

I am very ambivalent about dictating what is and is not important. The library
is meant to be extensible, meaning weird and wonderful widgets may well
exist.
Best regards,
Angus
