What I *did* provide is constructive criticism and useful feedback, to those 
who have ears to listen. The problem is you're not interested in hearing it.

Right, let me just go through the entire source code to deconstruct it, parsing 
out the meaning of every tersely-named variable and function name or totally 
undocumented function, so I can make a patch containing about a thousand 
comments that need to be added--then submit it here, so that y'all can pick it 
apart line by line and call me a moron. I'll get right on that.

Yes, of course; because this group is obviously, based on the responses, a 
gaggle of toxic, basement-dwelling dweebs who aren't actually interested in 
constructive criticism or feedback.

Free clue: Not everyone is a bunch of angry, closed minded dweebs as y'all 
apparently are. I just provided some similar feedback on the Squid mailing list 
the other day and it was well received, and politely so. They even agreed with 
what I was saying. Imagine that.
