Hi Alex, although I hate Repeaters and does not use it since many years ago, I must to say that Repeaters are everywhere. So I'm afraid that Falcon will need that things to make it production ready. If we want to be able to use it in old projects...If the plan is only use it for new ones, I'm sure that it would be even better so Repeater will be unavailable for falcon projects :)
