 objects down to the RecursiveQuery. The RecursiveQuery stores it in a
 variable. But the variable is not used anywhere, so the addresses are just
 stored. So, should we discuss it or just close?

 I've sent a followup message to the dev list, but haven't heard any
 objection.  So I'm going to close the ticket as "wontfix".
