As a personal request, let's table this discussion for now. This issue is too complex, and the related proposals have too many ramifications to push it into the impending release.
I appreciate your enthusiasm for the discussion, and I apologize for trying to shut you down. Unfortunately, right now I don't have enough cycles to devote to the issue, and to getting the next release made. I had an enormous work deadline late last night, and another tomorrow. Every minute I spend on this discussion comes out of a very small pool of minutes to address the remaining issues that *must* be resolved before the new release. So no matter what happens, we'll have to spin this conversation back up when I am able to attend to it again. Again, I apologize; I simply must impose some priorities or I won't provide the services that ASDF requires. Thanks, R
