Greetings Neal, "ASAP" is quite strong... I vote for "after 3.2.0 is released", and perhaps "after 3.2.1 bug-fix is released".
To me, the bloated database / slow digging seems a more major problem. Feedback from 3.2.0b5 showed that it was a real disincentive for 3.1.6 users to migrate, and that would mean someone needs to support the legacy 3.1.6 code indefinitely. As a side issue, there is debate about whether UTF-8 (rather than wchar) is suitable for internal representation. However, once we encapsulate all of our string handling behind a simple API, we will be able to change libraries easily.
