I agree, but the problem is I'm not a very good programmer ;)
I can get by, but just barely. I can manage to make an interface to
Telnet, since it's a defined interface. Last time I tried to edit
something in the node code, I got lost, and ended up changing
something entirely unrelated ;)

I accept that there is a debate about this.  It's not my fight... I
understand whichever way they want to do it.
The thing is, since it's available via fproxy ANYWAY, it's available
via Telnet ANYWAY, not putting it via FCP just encourages hacks like
mine ;)

And having it will encourage hackish solutions to people not wanting
to bother to do darknet the right way which is bad for the whole
network.

It's possible through fproxy but it's not easy to do so it'll continue to work.
It's possible through TMCI but that's going to be removed at some point.
