Context

Following the architecture discussion in OHIF Office Hours and the Modular Waveform Viewport Integration RFC, this PR introduces the Layer 1 Primitive ECG Viewport in @cornerstonejs/core.
Key design alignments implemented in this PR:

  1. GenericViewport as Untouched Base: GenericViewport remains an abstract base class. ECGViewport extends it as a concrete subclass.
  2. Pure Graphic Primitive Viewport: Layer 1 core rendering draws only waveform signal traces and the background calibration grid (mm/s, mm/mV). Text labels (e.g., "I", "aVR", "V1-V6") and region bounding boxes are decoupled to Layer 2 (WaveformRegionOverlayTool in @cornerstonejs/tools).
  3. Dynamic Layout Partitioning via AABB2: Supports normalized (0.0–1.0) AABB2 traceRegions to flexibly accommodate 12x1, 6x2, 3x4+1, and 15-lead/21-lead setups without hardcoded layout math in Core.
  4. Discrete Z-Coordinate World Mapping: canvasToWorld and worldToCanvas map $Z = \text{lead/region index}$, providing slice/row isolation for measurement tools.
    Reference: OHIF/Viewers#6068

Changes & Results

  • packages/core/src/RenderingEngine/GenericViewport/ECG/ECGViewportTypes.ts:
    • Added TraceRegion interface utilizing Cornerstone3D's standard AABB2 (minX, maxX, minY, maxY in 0.0–1.0 floats), leadIndices: number[], and timeWindow?: [number, number].
    • Added traceRegions?: TraceRegion[] to ECGPresentationProps.
  • packages/core/src/RenderingEngine/GenericViewport/ECG/CanvasECGRenderPath.ts:
    • Removed direct label rendering (drawECGLabels) to ensure Layer 1 functions strictly as a pure graphic primitive.
  • packages/core/src/RenderingEngine/GenericViewport/ECG/ECGResolvedView.ts:
    • Coordinate transformations resolve distinct $Z$-indices per trace row (canvasToWorld returns [time/sample, voltage, regionIndex], worldToCanvas maps $Z$ to the target region).

What are the effects of this change?

  • Before: Static layout assumptions with lead text baked directly onto the canvas in Core.
  • After: Pure primitive signal/grid canvas pipeline with dynamic AABB2 region support and tool-isolated $Z$-coordinates.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The ECG implementation derives calibrated metrics, layouts, and transforms from ECGResolvedView. It adds sweep speed, sensitivity, multiple lead layouts, scrolling, legacy camera adaptation, metadata calibration, and resolved-geometry validation.

Changes

ECG calibration and layout rendering

Layer / File(s) Summary
Channel calibration
packages/metadata/src/utilities/metadataProvider/ecgFromInstance.ts, packages/metadata/test/*
Metadata conversion stores per-channel mvPerUnit values and derives calibration from channel sensitivity.
Layout and drawing utilities
packages/core/src/utilities/ECGUtilities.ts
Metrics and layouts use sweep speed, sensitivity, and layout type. Grid labels, segmented traces, and rhythm-strip layouts are supported.
Resolved rendering path
packages/core/src/RenderingEngine/GenericViewport/ECG/*
ECGResolvedView owns derived geometry and cell-aware transforms. CanvasECGRenderPath consumes this state for drawing and event payloads.
Viewport and adapter integration
packages/core/src/RenderingEngine/GenericViewport/ECG/*, packages/core/src/RenderingEngine/ECGViewport.ts, packages/core/src/types/ECGViewportProperties.ts
The viewport resolves geometry before rendering, implements scrolling and image matching, exposes calibration data, and adapts legacy presentation and camera APIs.
Validation
packages/core/test/*, packages/metadata/test/*
Tests cover resolved metrics, layouts, transforms, projections, viewport modes, and ECG sensitivity conversion.

Review of PR #2899: correctness, Generic Viewport design, display set and metadata

This review covers the head of feat/ecg-core-generic-viewport after a merge of
origin/main (42e3cbe12). The merge had no conflicts. PR #2900 and PR #2901
still point at the earlier head of this branch, so each one needs the same merge.

The reference for the design items is the Generic Viewport code design
specification in PR #2929
(packages/docs/docs/specs/core/generic-viewport-code-design.md). Each design
item names the requirement that the code breaks.

The order is: correctness defects (§ 1), Generic Viewport design (§ 2), display
set and metadata (§ 3), tests and comments (§ 4), and a suggested order of work
(§ 5).

Summary

  • The resolved view now owns the world geometry. This is the most important
    design fix, and this review asks for no change to it.
  • The layout model goes back to the layoutType enumeration in core. The PR
    description says the opposite: "without hardcoded layout math in Core".
    traceRegions has no effect in any of the three pull requests.
  • Seven correctness defects change what a reader sees, or where an annotation
    lands. Two of them break the deprecated RenderingEngine/ECGViewport.
  • Core does work that belongs to the display set model and to the metadata
    model of @cornerstonejs/metadata.

1. Correctness defects

1.1 The deprecated ECGViewport draws a cut and compressed trace

computeECGChannelLayouts now has the defaults numberOfSamples = 5000 and
ecgWidth = 1000, and it writes them into every layout cell.
RenderingEngine/ECGViewport.ts:248 passes only visibleChannels and
channelScale, so the defaults apply.

Effect. A 10 s ECG at 1000 Hz has a legacy ecgWidth of 1500. The trace
stops at sample 5000, and it fills a width of 1000. The reader sees 5 s of
signal in two thirds of the grid, and the trace does not align with the grid or
with the tool coordinates.

Fix. Remove the two defaults, and make the two arguments required. Pass the
real values from the deprecated class.

1.2 The 12x1 layout always reserves 12 rows

getECGLayoutRowCount returns the larger of the nominal row count and the count
of visible leads. 12x1 is the default, and the deprecated class also uses it
through computeECGHeight.

Effect. A 3-lead ECG, or a 12-lead ECG with 9 hidden leads, draws its traces
in the top rows over 9 or 10 empty rows. The auto-fit scale divides the height
by 12, so each trace is 1/4 to 1/6 of its earlier height. The deprecated class
computes channelScale for the visible leads and ecgHeight for 12 rows, so its
content no longer fits the canvas.

Fix. Use the count of visible leads as the row count of 12x1.

1.3 The transform and the draw use different sample ranges

ECGResolvedView.canvasToWorld and worldToCanvas map X across the sample
range of the layout cell, which is 0 to numberOfSamples for 12x1 and for
the rhythm strip. drawFrame draws those traces over the range that
computeTimeWindow gets from viewState.timeRange.

Effect. After scroll(), scrollToTime(), or setViewState with a smaller
timeRange, the canvas shows one part of the signal and the transform reports a
different part. An annotation or a probe reads the wrong sample. The cells of a
multi-column layout also ignore timeRange: each cell puts
numberOfSamples / colCount samples into a width that comes from windowMs,
so the cell does not keep the mm/s calibration.

Fix. The resolved view applies the time window when it builds the layout
cells. The draw then reads startSample and endSample from the cell, and
computeTimeWindow in the render path goes away.

1.4 scroll() has no effect at the default time range

After setDisplaySets, timeRange is [0, durationMs], so windowMs equals
durationMs. scroll() clamps nextStart to durationMs - windowMs, which is
0. When a caller sets a window that is longer than the signal, the first scroll
sets nextEnd = durationMs, and the window stays smaller after that.

Fix. State the intended behaviour of scroll() for a full-length window.
Keep windowMs constant in the clamp, and clamp only the start.

1.5 A hidden lead moves the other leads to a different time segment

computeECGLayoutGrid gets the row and the column from the position in the
visible list.

Effect. In the 3x4 layout, a hidden lead I moves lead II to column 0 and
moves aVR from column 1 (2.5 s to 5 s) to column 0 (0 s to 2.5 s). The reader
sees a lead at the wrong time, and nothing tells the reader. The standard 3x4
layout gives each lead a fixed position.

Fix. Get the row and the column from the index of the lead in the
unfiltered list, and leave the cell of a hidden lead empty.

1.6 The millivolt labels do not sit on the major grid lines

drawECGGrid draws the labels at baseline ± majorH. The major grid lines
start at y = 0, and the baseline of a row is yOffset + min * scale, so the
labels fall between the grid lines. Each cell of a row draws its label at
x = 5, so the four cells of a 3x4 row draw over each other. The font size is
10 world pixels, so the text becomes too small to read when
worldToCanvasRatio is small.

Fix. Align the grid to the baseline of each row, or put the labels on the
grid lines. Add layout.xOffset to the X position, and scale the font as
drawECGLabels does.

1.7 The documentation of sensitivityMmMv does not match the code

ECGProperties.sensitivityMmMv says "Defaults to 10 mm/mV". The code treats an
undefined value as the auto-fit mode, and then it draws no millivolt labels. With
a value, the fit ratio worldToCanvasRatio scales the whole frame, so 1 mm on
the grid is not ECG_PX_PER_MM CSS pixels.

Fix. Correct the documentation. State in the PR description what
"calibrated" means on the screen. If 1 mm must be a fixed size, the fit ratio
must not apply in the calibrated mode.

1.8 Performance: the geometry runs again for each transform

ECGViewport.getResolvedView() builds a new ECGResolvedView for each call, so
the caches inside the instance do not help. Each instance runs
computeECGLayoutGrid two times: one time through computeECGHeight and one
time through computeChannelLayouts. A tool calls canvasToWorld for each
handle on each mouse move.

Fix. Cache the resolved view for each version of the view state, of the
presentation and of the canvas size. Pass the grid from the metrics to the
layouts.


2. Generic Viewport design

What is correct

  • The resolved view owns the geometry. ECGResolvedView computes the
    metrics, the layouts and the canvas transform from the data, the canvas and
    the view state. CanvasECGRenderPath reads them through
    ctx.getResolvedView(). This closes the first known deviation of the
    specification, and it satisfies GENVIEW-VIEW-2, GENVIEW-VIEW-6,
    GENVIEW-PATH-2 and GENVIEW-API-4.
  • getCamera and setCamera are on ECGViewportLegacyAdapter
    (GENVIEW-LEGACY-2).
  • RenderWindowMetrics is an alias of ECGRenderMetrics, and the unused
    ChannelLayout type is gone (GENVIEW-STATE-5).
  • The layout presets are in the demo (utils/demo/helpers/ecgLayouts.ts), as
    GENVIEW-EXT-3 asks.

2.1 The layoutType enumeration is in core again, and traceRegions has no effect

The branch adds ECGLayoutType ('12x1' | '6x2' | '3x4' | '3x4+1') and three
tables of rows and columns for each layout name to utilities/ECGUtilities.ts.
No code reads traceRegions. The example in PR #2900 sets layoutType, and it
does not use createLayoutRegions.

The PR description says that TraceRegion supports any layout "without
hardcoded layout math in Core". The code does not do that. Core exports
TraceRegion through three paths, so an application can set traceRegions and
get no result. A later release must then keep an API that never had an effect.

Decision needed. Pick one model:

  • TraceRegion (recommended). The resolved view builds the layout cells
    from the regions, and the layout names stay in the demo presets. Remove
    ECGLayoutType and the three tables from core.
  • layoutType. Remove TraceRegion and traceRegions from the public API,
    and correct the PR description.

2.2 Options that move the trace are in the data presentation

Breaks GENVIEW-STATE-1, GENVIEW-STATE-3 and GENVIEW-API-5.

ECGDataPresentation holds layoutType, sweepSpeed, sensitivityMmMv,
visibleChannels, traceRegions and amplitudeScale. A change of each one
moves a world point on the canvas. The data presentation path does not fire
CAMERA_MODIFIED, so an annotation stays where it was until something else
starts a redraw, and then it appears on the wrong part of the signal.

The specification lists sweepSpeed as a known deviation. It says that when a
change makes the option live, the option goes into ECGViewState. This PR makes
sweepSpeed live in the data presentation, so the PR makes a known deviation
worse.

Fix. Move the six options into ECGViewState. The change modifies the
public API, so do it before the first release of these options.

2.3 utilities/ECGUtilities.ts grows by about 550 lines

Breaks GENVIEW-FILE-1 and GENVIEW-FILE-5. Makes a known deviation worse.

All of the new layout, metric and grid code serves the ECG family only. The
Video family and the WSI family keep their draw code in the family directory.
ECGViewportTypes.ts now imports a type from utilities/ECGUtilities.ts, so
the family and the utility module depend on each other.

Fix. Move the ECG layout, metric and draw code into
RenderingEngine/GenericViewport/ECG/. Keep a re-export in
utilities/ECGUtilities.ts for the deprecated class, and remove it with that
class.

2.4 The family types reach the public API through two paths

Breaks GENVIEW-FILE-2.

types/index.ts imports six types from
RenderingEngine/GenericViewport/ECG/ECGViewportTypes and exports them again.
The family index already exports them. types/ECGViewportTypes.ts is a
different file with the same name, and it feeds the same barrel.

Fix. Remove the block from types/index.ts.

2.5 The ECG family does not answer getCurrentMode()

Breaks GENVIEW-FAMILY-5 and GENVIEW-API-6.

The branch adds viewportSupportsWaveform, which tests for the methods
getWaveformData and getImageData. The specification asks for
getCurrentMode():

getCurrentMode(): ViewportContentMode {
  return this.getWaveformData() ? 'ecg' : 'empty';
}

Keep viewportSupportsWaveform only for the deprecated class, which does not
extend GenericViewport.

2.6 drawECGLabels is still called

The PR description says that the PR removes drawECGLabels from
CanvasECGRenderPath. The call is still at CanvasECGRenderPath.ts:214. That is
correct until PR #2901 merges, because the overlay tool comes in PR #2901.
Correct the PR description, and remove the call in PR #2901.

2.7 Smaller items

  • amplitudeScale scales the drawn trace and not the transform. That is a
    known deviation, and this PR does not change it.
  • The @deprecated note on RenderingEngine/ECGViewport says "Use
    ViewportType.ECG_NEXT with the ECGViewportLegacyAdapter". ECG_NEXT
    resolves to the family class, and ViewportType.ECG resolves to the adapter.
  • ECGViewportProperties.layoutType and ECGProperties.layoutType repeat the
    union literal. Use ECGLayoutType, or remove all three with § 2.1.

3. Display set and metadata

@cornerstonejs/metadata holds the display set model (IDisplaySet,
defaultDisplaySetSplitRules, createDisplaySetFromGroup) and the ECG metadata
provider (ecgFromInstance). A fact about the data belongs there, and not in a
core utility.

What is correct

  • The ecg split rule makes one display set for each SOP instance, with
    viewportTypes: ['ecg'].
  • ecgFromInstance computes mvPerUnit from ChannelSensitivity,
    ChannelSensitivityCorrectionFactor and ChannelSensitivityUnitsSequence.
    ecgCalibrationProvider uses the same value.

3.1 hasImageURI reads the registry directly

The new ECGViewport.hasImageURI reads sourceDataId from
genericViewportDisplaySetMetadataProvider itself. The function
getGenericViewportSourceDataId in genericViewportDisplaySetAccess.ts
already does that lookup.

Fix. Call getGenericViewportSourceDataId.

The ECG family resolves a display set through this registry, with an entry
{ kind: 'ecg', sourceDataId }, and not through IDisplaySet /
MetadataModules.DISPLAY_SET. The ecg split rule already puts the SOP image
id in underlyingImageIds. A connection from IDisplaySet to the shared access
module applies to every family, so it is a separate pull request. This PR must
not add more direct reads of the registry.

3.2 loadECGWaveform repeats the work of the metadata provider

loadECGWaveform in utilities/ECGUtilities.ts:

  • reads the channel name from both channelSourceSequence.codeMeaning and
    ChannelSourceSequence.CodeMeaning. The ECG metadata module must return one
    form.
  • applies the mvPerUnit default again. ecgFromInstance always sets
    mvPerUnit.
  • uses a second copy of ECG_DEFAULT_MV_PER_UNIT. Core already depends on
    @cornerstonejs/metadata, so core can import the constant and the
    EcgModuleFull type.

The load step belongs to DefaultECGDataProvider (GENVIEW-DATA-1), and not to
utilities/.

3.3 Core identifies the rhythm lead with a regular expression on the name

getECGRhythmPosition searches the display name with \bii\b. The identity of
a lead is a fact of the data. ChannelSourceSequence carries a coded lead
identifier (CodeValue and CodingSchemeDesignator), and ecgFromInstance
keeps only codeMeaning.

Fix. Add the coded identifier to each channel definition in the ECG
metadata module. A layout or a preset then selects a lead by its code.

3.4 The metadata provider reads only the first waveform group

ecgFromInstance and ecgCalibrationProvider both read groups[0] of
WaveformSequence. An ECG instance often holds a rhythm group and a median beat
group, at different sampling frequencies. The viewport cannot show the second
group. The calibration also uses the sensitivity of the first channel only, but
mvPerUnit is a value for each channel.

Fix. The selection of a group is a display set decision. Add the group
index as a groupBy key of the ecg split rule, or as a display set attribute,
and let the provider read the selected group. This change is in the metadata
package, so it is a separate pull request.

3.5 An application cannot select a layout before the load

The demo presets need the count of leads, the lead codes and the duration. Only
the loaded waveform has these values today, for example through
ECGViewport.getDurationMs().

Fix. Let the ecg split rule supply them through customAttributes: the
number of channels, the lead codes, the sampling frequency, the number of
samples and the multiplex group label. A hanging protocol then reads them from
the IDisplaySet, and it selects the preset before the bulk data loads.

3.6 The viewport type hint 'ecg' maps to the legacy type

The display set documentation maps the hint 'ecg' to ViewportType.ECG, which
is the legacy adapter. The documentation must also state how an application gets
ECG_NEXT.

Where each fact belongs

Fact Owner now Correct owner
The selection of the waveform group ecgFromInstance (groups[0]) The split rule, or a display set attribute
The lead identity (code) A regular expression on the name, in core The ECG metadata module
The channel name form, the mvPerUnit default loadECGWaveform in core utilities The ECG metadata module
The lead count, the duration and the sampling frequency for the layout choice The loaded waveform only IDisplaySet attributes from the ecg split rule
displaySetId to SOP image id genericViewportDisplaySetMetadataProvider IDisplaySet.underlyingImageIds, through the shared access module
The layout presets The demo (ecgLayouts) The application. No change.

4. Tests, comments and the scope of the change

Tests. ecgResolvedView.jest.js and ecgRenderMetrics.jest.js test what
the API must do: the geometry before the first draw, and the round trip through
each cell. Those are the right kind of tests. The layout identity tests
(ecgChannelLayouts.jest.js) are in PR #2900 and not here. These cases have no
test:

  • scroll() and scrollToTime() (§ 1.4).
  • The agreement of the transform and the draw after a change of timeRange
    (§ 1.3).
  • The deprecated ECGViewport with a signal longer than 5000 samples (§ 1.1).
  • A 12x1 layout with fewer than 12 visible leads (§ 1.2).

Add these four. Do not add tests for internal null checks.

Comments. Several inline comments have 4 to 7 lines, and they describe what
"the previous code" did. Put the history in the commit message. Put the rule in
the doc comment of the function, and keep the inline comment to one or two
lines.

Scope. The PR changes behaviour that a user sees, and the description does
not say so:

  • the meaning of the calibration on the screen (§ 1.7),
  • the 12-row minimum (§ 1.2),
  • the output of the deprecated class (§ 1.1).

List each change of user-visible behaviour in the description, separately from
the code changes.

7 Remove the types/index.ts block. Add getCurrentMode(). Call getGenericViewportSourceDataId. Correct the PR description. § 2.4, § 2.5, § 2.6, § 3.1 Small
8 Import the constant and the type from @cornerstonejs/metadata, and move the name clean-up into the metadata module. § 3.2 Small
9 Move the ECG code into GenericViewport/ECG/. § 2.3 Medium
10 Move the six geometry options into ECGViewState. § 2.2 Medium. It changes the public API.
11 Cache the resolved view. § 1.8 Small
12 In a separate pull request on the metadata package: lead codes, the selection of the waveform group, and the display set attributes for the layout choice. § 3.3, § 3.4, § 3.5 Medium

Steps 3 to 8 carry no design risk. Do step 2 first, because the answer changes
steps 4, 9 and 10. Step 10 changes the public API, so do it before the first
release of these options.

Follow-up: method types of ECGViewport against PlanarViewport

This comment adds to the earlier review. It compares the public methods of
ECGViewport and ECGViewportLegacyAdapter with the methods of
PlanarViewport and PlanarViewportLegacyAdapter. Two families of the Generic
Viewport must give the same general type to the same method, so that a tool
can call the method without a test of the family.

The two families agree on getZoom, setZoom, getPan, setPan,
getRotation, getSliceIndex and hasImageURI. This comment asks for no
change to those methods.

1. Two differences give a wrong result

1.1 getCurrentImageId() and getImageIds() return the display set id

PlanarViewport returns image ids. ECGViewport returns binding.data.id,
which is the display set id. The type is string in both families, so the
compiler does not find the difference.

getViewReference() then writes the display set id into referencedImageId,
and getViewReferenceId() returns imageId:<displaySetId>. The result is
correct only when the application uses the SOP image id as the display set id.

Fix. Resolve the id with getGenericViewportSourceDataId(binding.data.id).
Add getSourceDataId(), as PlanarViewport has, and use it in
getCurrentImageId, getImageIds, hasImageURI and a new hasImageId.

1.2 Each ECG scroll fires STACK_SCROLL_OUT_OF_BOUNDS

The shared utilities/scroll.ts applies the stack rule to every viewport that
has getCurrentImageIdIndex and scroll. ECGViewport reports index 0 and one
image id, so each delta other than 0 is out of bounds, and the utility fires
the event. The utility then calls viewport.scroll(delta, debounceLoading, loop). ECGViewport.scroll accepts that legacy parameter list.
PlanarViewport.scroll does not.

Fix. Do both of these steps:

  • Give ECGViewport.scroll the signature of the Planar family:
    scroll(delta: number): Promise<…>.
  • Let utilities/scroll.ts read getCurrentMode() before it applies the stack
    rule. This step needs the getCurrentMode() override of the earlier review
    (§ 2.5).

2. The family class

Method PlanarViewport ECGViewport Change for ECG
setDisplaySets { displaySetId; options?: PlanarSetDataOptions }[] { displaySetId }[], with no options Accept options?, so that a caller can give a role or an overlay
resetViewState (options?: PlanarResetViewStateOptions), with resetPan, resetZoom, resetOrientation, resetFlip () Add ECGResetViewStateOptions with resetPan, resetZoom and resetTimeRange
scroll (delta: number): Promise<string>. One slice. (delta = 1, _debounceLoading, _loop): void. One screen of time. See § 1.2
getCurrentImageId (viewRefSpecifier?), returns an image id (), returns the display set id See § 1.1
getImageData (volumeId?), returns … | undefined (), returns CPUIImageData | null Return undefined when no data is mounted, as Planar does
getSourceDataId Present Absent. hasImageURI does the lookup itself. Add the method, and call it from hasImageURI
getCurrentMode Present Absent. The base answer is 'unknown'. Return 'ecg' or 'empty'
hasImageId Present Absent Add the method, with the lookup of § 1.1
getResolvedView ({ frameOfReferenceUID, sliceIndex }) () No change. The base class declares no parameters.

3. The legacy adapter

Method PlanarViewportLegacyAdapter ECGViewportLegacyAdapter Change for ECG
getCamera PlanarViewState & ICamera<PlanarScaleInput> ICamera ECGViewState & ICamera<…>, with the scale type that ECGResolvedView.buildICamera() returns
setCamera Partial<ICamera<PlanarScaleInput> & PlanarViewState> Partial<ICamera> The same form. A legacy caller can then set timeRange through setCamera.
resetCamera (options?: Parameters<PlanarViewport['resetViewState']>[0]). The adapter sends the options to resetViewState. (_options?: unknown). The adapter ignores the options. The same Parameters<…> form, after resetViewState accepts options
getViewPresentation, setViewPresentation PlanarViewPresentationSelector, PlanarViewPresentation ViewPresentationSelector, ViewPresentation Add ECG types only if the ECG presentation has fields of its own. Otherwise, no change.
setProperties (properties = {}, volumeIdOrSuppressEvents?, suppressEvents = false) (props) Add suppressEvents
getProperties, resetProperties (volumeId?) () No change. An ECG viewport mounts one waveform.
The data setter setStack(…): Promise<string> setEcg(…): Promise<void> No change. Each one matches its legacy class.

4. Suggested changes, in order

  1. The id lookup: getSourceDataId, hasImageId, and the source image id in
    getCurrentImageId, getImageIds and the view reference (§ 1.1).
  2. ECGResetViewStateOptions, and resetCamera sends the options to
    resetViewState (§ 2, § 3).
  3. ECGViewState & ICamera<…> in getCamera and setCamera (§ 3).
  4. The scroll signature and the getCurrentMode() test in
    utilities/scroll.ts (§ 1.2).

Steps 1 to 3 are small, and they stay inside the ECG family. Step 4 also
changes a shared utility.
