I like the general tone of this one. Two things though: First, since
this is a substantial change - and although I didn't see anything fishy
in it - we're close to a release right now, so how well did you test
this? :-)

And second: Since you've extended the function's behaviour, could you
also update the manual in `doc/grmlzshrc.t2t' accordingly, please?
