We came a full circle - that's the argument. We say overlap, duplication
and incomplete implementation in this area is a problem. Since the speed
of development in this area is truly glacial at the moment and the
practical advantages that i can experience personally (directly as a
Linux user and indirectly as a maintainer) are miniscule so far, caution
is warranted IMO. You say there is no problem. We'll have to agree to
disagree i guess.
