That's very kind of you, I appreciate it. Indeed, it can interest some users. I too would rather avoid to merge them, since scheduler changes can improve some workloads and cause unexpected regressions in other ones. However, if people insist and only report positive feedback, we might possibly consider them. I'll definitely test them in my tree ;-) Thanks!
