Ah yes, that does indeed look quite a bit nicer.

I figured that might be an issue.? Would you be open to 
providing a prose translation, but putting that in the 
details? If so, it would be useful to get feedback on 
what parts of the prose I proposed are imprecise enough 
to be incorrect/incomplete for some corner case.

Finally, would it make sense to move this discussion to
bugzilla?
