Mucking about by changing simple protocol items such as this is
counterproductive.

Nope, I disagree. I think it's a very elegant solution. For most people
the Send/Receive is silent. For nerds like us who want to watch it, we just
click the button twice. Nothing could be simpler than that.

Concur. The nerd in me used to watch the gears turning, but as I've
gotten older, I just want it to work silently, without fanfare.
