Hi, As being the guy who has created the tomahawk 1.2 branch and spent a lot of time with it, upgrading to 1.2 is not an easy task because as Simon mentioned the code is old and crusty.
I agree that non rendering stuff should be moved to commons, I've some candidates on my own from sandbox and tomahawk for commons. For autogeneration, one must generate all the component metadata, this all has been discussed on ML by the way. I still think tomahawk 1.2 makes sense.
