I have seen your commits - many thanks for this.

I'm CCing the bug report to keep a record that this is needed.  This
should be regarded for the igv upload to fix the bug.

sounds very sensible) this is the right approach.  So if you would
send an ITP this would be cool.  I'm also perfectly fine if you would
like to be Uploader of the package if you are interested.
