I can't wait for a simpler system. However, for this, I think we at
least need to find out what's going on, otherwise any new system might
be vulnerable to the same problem.

Also, while I think of it, the new system being simpler will make
problems easier to address, but that won't matter unless regular LP
devs have sufficient access to it.
