All good to here and consistent with Olof's comments. Thanks, I will
include in V2.

I suppose this is a matter of preference. I am allergic to multiple
return points. However, your argument is consistent with CodingStyle
Chapter 7 in that it states "and some common work such as cleanup has to
be done." If that "and" is a required sort of &&, then I should change
it. Do others have a strong opinion here?
