Well, I like the idea of the massive refactoring for two reasons:
  1) There's a lot in the core that still uses the .NET v1.1
non-generic collections.  It gives the impression that its
"old-fashioned", which is not the feel we want for a "Cutting edge"
alternate to ASP.NET.

 2) There are a lot of loose-ends, and half-done features in there --
When I was working on adding Portable Areas, I discovered that 90% of
the most difficult part was already in the core --- it just was being
used to anything.

Truth,
    James
