Hi Simone, thanks for the quick reply. I would like to gather some more feedback on the proposal itself, whether it looks good or there's something that's not clear enough or directly looks odd. I am expecting some resistance to incorporate all changes to 2.2.x, that was my initial though as well. But first step would be to evaluate the proposal and have 2.2.x split onto its own branch, so that we have room on trunk? That said the concern is totally valid, and reason why the proposal is all about API extensions, purely additive, so _no_ client code _needs_ to be touched, nor even any internal Catalog data structure or data access method. Perhaps a middle compromise could be agreed: adding the new methods, not changing anything else on 2.2.x, and work on a 2.3.x trunk, so that we can backport any Catalog client code on a case by case basis once consolidated on trunk?
But even for that it'd be good to have some feedback on the proposal itself, letting the 2.2.x discussion off for a while?
