My apology for that. I hate it when people get my name wrong, or, are you
related to Pat Sajak :)

No, one patch for creating the new method and using it in *to_target_array()
since that's a lot of lines of diffs and then another patch for the logic
changes to correct the code.

If the refactoring also changed the logic of the code being moved, then that's
not a good idea, since it's hard to review in the diff emails, a person would
have to go line by line to see what was changed. I'm not saying that's happened
here, since I didn't fully review the patch.

Blair
