My plan was never to remove the placeholder, but rather to modify the placeholder with logic to look up and return the proper host system. This would give us a control point for switching between host instrumentation, with the option to keep our fake one if nothing else is available. Adding such a function seems like a good idea to me, and as long as it uses the existing internal logic in HostSystem to get the information, it shouldn't need to change later.

Shall I hold off on this set or apply and let you add the generalized function first?

Thanks!

Yes, I'll rework this patch. No need to have the same code in multiple
