From the user point of view there isn't much difference between b) and
c), it's a function call + finish for every data type. From the
implementation point of view, b) requires a bit more boilerplate, but
it makes the API more flexible in case of adding new methods for
individual data types in the future. Deciding what goes in every group
might be tricky too. So, b) is what I've done in the end, see bug
