It's not a proposal yet - I didn't want to write a lengthy RFC just to learn that all I had was a brainfart, or that everyone was going to be totally opposed. Having the discussion here surfaced a ton of questions that (so far) indicate (to me) that this might be a good idea, and also helps me address all of those questions if I do end up writing an RFC. If you think gathering the information in an RFC is the next logical step, I will try to find the time :-) On Wed, May 1, 2013 at 8:41 AM, Peter Lind <peter.e.l...@gmail.com> wrote: > > On 1 May 2013 14:35, Rasmus Schultz <ras...@mindplay.dk> wrote: > >> > >> > This is a fringe feature, as evidenced by the fact that you >> > are having a hard time convincing people that it is needed >> >> >> As with anything that isn't already established and well-known, it's hard >> to convince anyone they need anything they don't understand - I think the >> barrier here is me having difficulty explaining a new idea/concept.
