Hi Mark,

Please feel free to steal it from me! Wonderful to see some movement on this

I'm an incrementalist -- I'm happy with one step at a time, so for what it's
worth I'd be happy to see divmod go in alone with % to be added later.
However, seeing as I'm really contributing, I'd say feel free to disregard
my vote of +1... :)
