These features definitely sound enticing,
and would certainly affect my decision of whether
to embrace 3.x or run back to 1.x.
I want to wait for 3.x to have a chance to materialize
a bit before I look into it, as often I judge things at
first glance, and it's hard to shake those impressions
once made.. so I don't want to jump the gun.
