Hmm.. perhaps the key is to make it easy to adapt the simulator code to your
own needs, instead of providing multiple models, which still do not fit
everybody's needs.

Anyway: I think that support for ARMs pseudo-random replacement strategy for
L1 (is this correct?) would be nice to have. You could create a "wishlist" bug
report and attach your patch for that.

Thanks,
