So noted - I'll update the MfD discussion to mention this.

Just out of interest, what was the reason for not regenerating
the default-table-X.m2d file?

No - of course not.
I said it would "cause problems" for implementing the old
API style, not that such problems were insurmountable.
I'm 100% sure that if it wasn't possible to fully implement
"R/A/C over baby_steps", then:

  a)  Wes would veto such a change
  b)  You wouldn't propose it in the first place

That's not fair! I do *NOT* have a low opinion of you.
I think we've got very different ideas about how this project
should move forward, and I will admit to finding that somewhat
frustrating at times.  
  But while I may disagree with some aspects of your vision,
I have nothing but admiration for the amount (and quality) of
the work you have put into this project.
  (I just wish that this enthusiasm was directed in a slightly
different direction :-) )
