Taking the units on faith, this seems to add a resonable additional
measurement.

Alex, I am assuming you are upstreaming this in paralllel, do keep us
in the loop if there are any changes.

Otherwise it looks a useful addition, not too invasive.

We'll want to get some testing on this once it hits.
