Although there are other Gnetlist frontend solutions which have less impact on memory footprint and performance, if you can get Ales to approve it, I am for it. Then you need to find out who is going to implement it. Moreover, to fix the PCB's netlist whatever problem, who is going to implement all the changes needed in PCB backends?
