FWIW, which was how the recent flurry of topics related to the
reftable backend were done by Patrick, which was quite nice. People
certainly need the feel of larger picture to get motivated to review
an earlier part of the series, but now that they saw the projected
end-game, splitting these into 4 series, each with materials in 7 or
so patches in v4, and presenting in not-so-quick succession one by
one, would make it less distracting and less daunting.

That's OK. If v4 were 40-patch series instead of 28, I am sure you
would have had the unit-test part near the end. So a bite sized
series of serieses may not show the unit-tests while the earlier
batches are still cooking, but as long as we all are aiming for that
same goal, we are fine. Let's help ourselves get there soon by
reviewing each other's patches ;-).
Thanks, both.
