        Not volunteering of course ;-) but wouldn't it make more sense to work
out what proportion of the cspi API is actually used by anyone [ gok ?
dasher ? ].

        My limited objdump -T grepping skill shows:
        
                SPI_ methods    Accessible* methods
dasher          5               9
mousetweaks     7               22
gok             15              78
libcspi         29              230

        So - a compat libcspi that makes dasher & mousetweaks happy should be
~trivial, for gok it would be more work; but fairly do-able [ though I'm
not volunteering ;-], and I guess we can throw much of the rest of
libcspi out without over-many qualms [ or are there other apps using
that ? ;-]

        Of course, the cspi port is also extremely mechanical work, potentially
even script-able to some degree ;-)

        Sounds good to me; there is presumably a new / native GObject-like C
binding that you're creating & exposing via python ?

        HTH,

                Michael.
