I'm concerned that this feature will be in purgatory if its 
author becomes busy or forgets about it. (Barring another 
individual assuming proprietorship.)


I wrote the implementation for that and I've made it clear that I 
have zero interest in going through the DIP process; I'm done 
with it as is. Someone else will have to do whatever else they 
decide to do.

Correct. To be completely honest it shouldn't have ever been 
merged since there was no approval from WalTila and they steer 
the language.


Given your status as a member of the Foundation, is there a 
plan/track of sorts to convert such a DIP-less -preview feature 
to a full-fledged one? I know it's a lot of work to write an 
improvement proposal, and deliberation with the community is a 
seemingly tiring (but necessary) ordeal, but I'm concerned that 
this feature will be in purgatory if its author becomes busy or 
forgets about it. (Barring another individual assuming 
proprietorship.)


I'm not sure. I will bring it up at the next foundation meeting.
