+       It's probably not worth it, and despite what you might take from the
+       above, we don't do it currently; that is, for non-"binary" coding
+       systems, we don't try to implement replace-mode at all. See the
+       do_speedy_insert variable above. The upside of this is that our API
+       is consistent and not buggy. -- Aidan Kehoe, Fri Oct 27 21:02:30 CEST
