Sounds really good.

And what about things like number-support? Your last statement was, that
we should implement it even if we know that it breaks backwards compatibility.
During the discussion I suggested to make the number-support pluggable to
ensure the complete backwards compatibility but you did not like the idea
of having a core functionality pluggable. So do I btw. With full number support
things like:

#if (5 / 2 == 2)

will not be true anymore (Since the result is 2.5). So what do we do then?
And I hope you did not change your mind on having number support. Other issues
on this direction are whitespace gobbling and escaping. Escaping for instance
is badly needed IMHO (Not only the "-thing, but \n and stuff).

My opinion on that really depends on the release cycles. If the first 1.5.x
release is to come in several months then I would like to have the Map-Support
in 1.4. But if I understand you correctly then 1.3.2 and 1.4 will follow shortly
after 1.3.1.
