I have to say that I really like this feature. Good work!

I feel the frustration too, but most of our remaining ubersetzung 
blockers aren't the kind of thing that can be solved that way, for 
example, bug 233

And a lot of our other remaining bugs are music related. My gut tells me 
that we should make music_sdl the default for this release, because 
although it is less featureful, it seems to be stable enough to release 
now. -- however, I don't want that decision to be based on my gut 
feeling. I would rather base it on a large amount of user testing. More 
thoughts on that in a separate e-mail...

I was really hoping that this would fix my fading issues in gfx_sdl, but 
no such luck :)

Good catch. The old version of euphoria couln't do that.
