Did you test the trial-balloon patch I sent to Manuel? It's not the one 
I'd ever commit, but behavior-wise it's likely very close in practice to a 
patch that would iterate over possible parent resources (ie there are 
differences in theory but probably not so many in practice).

So testing it on your machine would be sensible. And you might also remind 
me after 2.6.31 is out.
