Yes, I thought that was what you were saying. I disagree and think that discussion of the type that Nathaniel has started is a useful way to think more clearly and specifically about the API and what can be agreed. Otherwise we will come to the same impasse when Mark's code arrives. If that happens, we'll either lose the code because the merge is refused, or be forced into something that may not be the best way forward.
