I'm happy you're finding it useful.

Maybe cascading if statements are the best thing here.  Perhaps changing
the order of the then/else branches could ensure the conditionals are
still visible from the branches, but this is an exceedingly minor point.

I guess any use of cond could easily get overly verbose.  Please
disregard this suggestion.
