I agree, though I wouldn't yet go as far as asserting with 100% confidence
that obsoleting idle.el entirely is what should be done, though it's a
possibility. Just that we have an integration problem with duplicate
functionality, duplicate code and shared internals. Maybe just fixing the
later is enough. Because other than that, I feel the whole of CEDET has
been pretty obsolete, de facto, for a while now.
