Will do.

That will work, thanks.

Yes, but they are all under 20ns or so, I just put the smallest
reasonable delay to keep a fast host from going under this limit.
(although I doubt any could)

I was disappointed when I saw only set_multiple, so this would
be something nice to have, I'll look into it.

Ops, copy/paste error I think.
