FYI, I'm thinking of preparing patches with the code from the git
repository by the weekend, or early next week (Tromey and Volodya, if
you have other plans I'm fine, just let me know, also if you want to do
the patches yourselves I'm fine too :-D ) and post them as RFC to this
list.

We'll know then if you folks think we've been taking the right direction
and if there are use cases we are not covering with the current features
(probably). All is input welcome!

Of course you are all free to peek at the git repository at any time as
well. :-)
