That is why I asked to merge that branch with the trunk. That would be useful, but we need it to be tried by a few people first. if the people who are willing to try it (myself included) prefer the instability of merging the branch to the trunk to the inconvenience of building a separate tree, it seems like a good idea to do the merge now. both instability and inconvenience are temporary, but the latter doesn't preclude the former anyway, so choosing it is not a win. thi
