They will be corrected and enhanced, thanks for this. The is_multi is 
meant for specialization, with help if it we can, internally, save

I just reread that paragraph and I must say, there is too much code 
there, and not enough explanations indeed...

The review will be over then, but we like to read this! You can use this 
list or the GGL list for feedback or questions.

Thanks for all your efforts,
