You're on the right track by raising the idea here.  Depending on how 
complicated the idea is, the next step after some mailing list 
discussion could be either a MEP or a PR; but personally I would prefer 
to get a better picture of what you are talking about via this mailing 
list first.

Are you talking about adding high-level functionality that would be 
applicable to all backends?  Can you give an example of what sorts of 
changes would be required in mpl, and what they would accomplish?
