	-- it can be traversed with ipairs.	The table format looks like this:
	-- {
	--  {current = x, new = y, num = 1},
	--  {current = z, new = q, num = 2},

	-- that was used, in case users skip any numbers in the invocation.

	-- specified. To avoid clashes with later current parameters, we need to
	-- add it to the args table manually. Although it does not need to be
	-- specified, we don't want the module's behaviour to change if a user
	-- specifies it anyway.

	-- new1 parameter, so that the syntax for the old templates
	-- {{requested move}} and {{move-multi}} will both be supported.
