Thank you.

I looked around but don't understand why these macros need to be
exposed. I read this comment:

* Note that this is more or less the same that fillRelOptions does, so only
* use this if you need to do something non-standard within some option's
* code block.

but don't see how an AM author might be able to do something
non-standard with this interface.

Maybe Alvaro knows this better.

Thanks,
Amit
