All of this thoroughly makes sense, so much that I can't find anything to
criticize. It's obvious you spent some time thinking about this.

I had been wondering about the best approach to this problem, and agree the
"under cover, but reversable" one is the best compromise. Security and
convenience are well worth a small (and shrinkable) performance penalty.

A definite "Go ahead!" from me, and thanks!
