I realize and I apologize that it was irresponsible of me to have said
that; maybe got a bit too excited. I do not want to unduly draw people's
time on something that's not quite ready while there are other things
people have worked hard on to get in time. In all earnestness, I say we
spend time perfecting those things.

I'll add this into CF-JUN'15. I will keep posting updates meanwhile so
that when that commitfest finally starts, we will have something worth
considering.

Thanks,
