I would support pulling this in, but we need additional committers to
approve it, and one or more to volunteer as sponsor(s).
As @revans2 mentioned, this is a sizable amount of code, and effectively
amounts to a code donation from Microsoft. As such it needs to go through the
IP clearance process before it can be merged.
If there are enough +1 votes from committers (an no vetoes), I will
initiate the IP clearance process.
