Btw, if this tests out good and we end up doing this, I think we
should also just rename that '.ignore_signals' bitfield to
'.block_signals' to actually match what it does.

But that's an entirely cosmetic thing just to clarify things. The
patch would look almost identical, apart from the new name (and the
small additional parts to rename the two existing users that weren't
touched by that patch - the header file and the vhost use-case).
