I've noticed you suggested this change in both the original options area
and in my form handling.

I'm not sure I want to do this change at this point.

My current attempt is to recreate the semantics of the current options
screen, even if those semantics may be broken.  This change suggests you
think the current implementation is wrong as well.  I don't want to try to
do too many things at once.  If something is not working right, I want it
to be because I failed to come up with the exact same output; not because I
decided to change it.

On the other hand, if that gets changed in the official code, I will change
my code to reflect that change (and will continue to do so until either my
code becomes the standard or we decide that at this point the project is
too cumbersome to continue).
