+1 on not overloading it. That ties in with my queries on the callback
doc string: part of the reason I was asking for lots of clarification is
because I got the feeling that something "magic" was happening that
wasn't being said - such as leaving temp files iff the callback function
pointer was non-null - but wasn't sure whether that was supposed to be
implied or not.
