Hmm.  Seems pretty confusing.  I could see making it selective in
general, or non-selective in general, but having it sometimes one and
sometimes another seems odd.

If we want selective, I assume the way is to have the UI pass a unit
view, not a unit, into the kernel.

But making it consistently non-selective is the way I would lean.
