Hi Gabriel,

This change never received any other reviews, and no pings before v4.7
was released. Sorry that it fell through the cracks, but always feel
free to re-ping leading up to the merge window.

Can you rebase this against -rc1? Also, do you have a plan to rework the
binding to move away from the one-node-per-clock style?

Regards,
Mike
