Several fixes and improvements.

Hi James, hopefully everything is to your like. Also, i spent a couple of hours reading through the four pages of issues to close these which are appropriate. The last commit should perform it once merged.

For reference:

resolves: we got rid of the issue/implement it.
closed/closes: obsolete or fixed at some point
fixes/fix: fixed recently (ie, in 1.0.0-thunk)

Cheers!
