I haven't forgotten about it :(.  There has been little review feedback
on this patchset and I still have overall concerns about the approach
we've been taking to c/r development.  I have a lengthy Feb 15 email
from Pavel which I also haven't forgotten about, but I haven't got back
to thinking about the whole topic yet, sorry.  Soon...
