Jason,

Please understand that the questions, although real concerns, are rhetorical in the context of this discussion. I know the answers to them, but they are intended to serve as an example of why I consider the tail option only a partial solution. This is not to dissuade you from implementing it; it is merely a response to your incomprehension of "why it fails to meet" my expectations of convenience, etc.
