Oh, I didn't think of that. Yes, this is delicate - both thorns don't know of another, but in this case in theory should. Could we add the patch as proposed, but also add a runtime check that looks for an active IOUtils thorn, and checks at least that filereader_ID_vars isn't empty - to avoid both abusing the parameter and accidental usage?
