Note that I'd definitely be more comfortable with a "real"
implementation, but only if people are happy with it.

Of course, the alternative is to just keep it entirely as one single
separate branch that does all of this, and _not_ have subsystems merge
things on their own at all. The only complicated cases I've seen (but
maybe I just missed some) were networking, and they could do their
stuff later.

So I guess I don't care _that_ deeply, and if Thomas is happier with
that "keep ti separate" thing, I won't object.
