Revert a bunch of contraversial changes by PHK. After

a quick think and discussion among various people some form of some of
these changes will probably be recommitted.

The reversion requested was requested by dg while discussions proceed.
PHK has indicated that he can live with this, and it has been agreed
that some form of some of these changes may return shortly after further
discussion.
